Gothic Windows: Sienna Reliquary

Collection: SIDES: Plates of Curiosity

A frame of stone, a lens of glass, Where ancient light and shadows pass. Through pointed arches, sharp and high, We catch a fragment of the sky. Experiments in flame and lead, Where curiosity is fed; Each peculiar glaze a storied sight, Held within a window’s light. Burnt orange earth and copper rust, Rising from the chapel dust. A glowing coal, a steady flame, That bears a warm and earthy name.
