Our member Philip Hickin had organised a follow-up session to the talk last week about Tiffany windows. He had provided books, photos and many copies of Tiffany windows in black and white for members to colour in according to their choice. In addition there were bookmarks where we could slide in finished small pictures. We were soon so absorbed in our work that you could have heard a pin drop.

Tiffany windows
Last week the HAS enjoyed an illustrated talk on Tiffany by Douglas Jackson. However, though Tiffany’s famous lamps and table decorations were mentioned, the emphasis was on stained glass windows by Tiffany which was new for most members.
Douglas showed on screen many stunning examples. They featured three-dimensional-looking figures and objects, many of them placed in landscapes that seem to recede in space. He gave St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Troy, New York, USA as one example of where you can admire amazing Tiffany windows.
