Where do stained glass designers get their ideas from? The answer is that they take their ideas from a wide variety of sources.
For example, since the Middle Ages onwards, many churches have had stained glass windows that are inspired by famous Biblical stories. This could include the life and actions of Jesus Christ or other famous instances in the Bible. Often, stained glass designers took stories which had a lesson which could be applied and represented it in stained glass. For example, the story of Ruth could be used to teach hard work and support for family. In the Middle Ages, these windows were used to help teach the members of the local parish, the majority of whom could not speak Latin and so could not understand the traditional church services. In modern churches, Biblical scenes are still used to illustrate notable teachings and lessons. As well as scenes from the Bible, stained glass designers can be inspired by other pieces of Church history, such as the lives of saints. For example, it is common for a church named after a particular saint to have a stained glass window showing a scene from their life.
Another source of inspiration for stained glass designers is nature. In many modern buildings, the trend is moving away from religious scenes to portraying beauty and nature in the images. Stained glass is a great way of depicting the beauty of mountains, trees, lakes and rivers. As the light comes through the window and illuminates the different shades of colour, the whole image appears to come to life with a brilliant luminance.
Sometimes stained glass designers are inspired by particular schools, or styles, of art. For example, the style of Rennie Mackintosh, the nineteenth and early twentieth century artist and architect, has inspired many stained glass designers to create new, beautiful pieces of work.
