  • Arts & Crafts Stained Glass
    Event Review: Summer lecture Friday 19 June : ‘Exploring Arts & Crafts Stained Glass: a 40-year adventure in light and colour – an illustrated lecture’ by Peter Cormack he lecture was an introduction to some of the main themes Tof the speaker’s newly-published book, Arts & Crafts Stained Glass (Yale University Press for the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art). He began by saying that his discovery of this rich field of research had begun when he was a student at Cambridge in the 1970s, and had developed particularly during his thirty years working as a curator at the William Morris Gallery in London. He paid tribute to the work of other scholars in the field, especially Martin Harrison’s V ictorian Stained Glass , Birkin Haward’s two books on 19th-century glass in Norfolk and Suffolk and Nicola Gordon Bowe’s studies of Irish stained glass. He also emphasized the critical importance of ‘field-work’ – actually going to the places where windows are located to see them in their architectural context. He felt that the internet, with its wealth of images, could sometimes deter people from studying stained glass properly. This was why the BSMGP’s conferences, with their focussed study-visits to churches and other sites, were such a valuable exercise. He then took us through the main narrative of his book, beginning with the pioneers who, from the late 1870s onwards, had championed stained glass as a modern and expressive art form, instead of the formulaic and imitative productions of firms like C. E. Kempe. Henry Holiday was one of the most effective campaigners against commercialism and historicism: his windows Christopher Whall: detail of window in Gloucester Cathedral Lady Chapel, 1901 feature superb figure-drawing combined with a real knowledge of his craft.

Very sensibly they have not only proposed a scheme for the rear of the church, but also a comprehensive plan of restoration.

  • Newton Country Day School Chapel
    Newton Country Day School Chapel In 1925, the Religious of the Sacred Heart transferred their Boston school for girls to the former Tudor-Revival style estate of Loren D. Towle in Newton, Massachusetts. The Boston architectural firm of Maginnis and Walsh (founded in 1898 as Maginnis, Walsh, and Sullivan) built the chapel and a four-story school wing between 1926 and 1928. The senior partner was Charles D. Maginnis (1867-1955), an immigrant from Londonderry, Ireland by way of Toronto, Canada. Maginnis’ leadership revolutionized the architecture of Roman Catholic institutions in America. In 1909, the firm won the competition to design Boston College and in the 1920s would build the library, chapel, and dining hall for the College of the Holy Cross, Worcester. The firm had then become highly honored; Boston College’s Devlin Hall had received the J. Harleston Parker Gold Medal in 1925 and the Carmelite Convent in Carmel, California (1925) and Trinity College Chapel in Washington, DC (1927) both won the American Institute of Architects’ Gold Medal. Maginnis was an admirer of the American Eclectic movement (1880s-1930s) which made use of a variety of historic expressions. The Newton Country Day School Chapel is English 15th- century Gothic. Its style shows an admirably simple practicality, yet evokes warmth through the use of wood for side paneling and roof. In the center, for the students, the seats face the front and the altar. The outer seating, used by the Religious for community prayer, is set in a choir-stall structure, aligned with the sides of the chapel and equipped with seats that fold up when they are not being used.

The glory of the church is the three light window in the west wall, The Benedicite, by Louis Davis, considered the last of the Pre- Raphaelites. Its theme is Praise, and shows all the works of the Lord. The window was exhibited at Leighton House in London to great acclaim, before its installation at Colmonell in 1910. The architect Robert Lorimer, who designed many elements of the church’s interior — including the pulpit, linenfold panels and the fine organ case — suggested that the window was possibly “the finest example of stained glass, ancient or modern, that had ever been produced”. The design, glorious in its use of Stephen with his stone, St Cecilia, “Davis blue”, has a great sense of a small organ in her arms, St poetry and energy in the Hubert holding the couples for his ascending figures, with spiralling hounds, and St Andrew the banners of music increasing the Apostle with cross on girdle. sense of movement.
