The Stained Glass of Herkenrode Abbey

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The glazing from Herkenrode Abbey constitutes the most significant body of Flemish stained glass in the world. Most of it is now in Lichfield Cathedral, and recent conservation has afforded a unique opportunity to study the glass in depth. It is presented here fully, for the first time, in its historical, art-historical and artistic contexts.
