Provenance: the artist's studio sale
Holy Trinity Church was originally built as a chapel-of-ease to St Mary’s, Lancaster in 1745 on land bequeathed for the purpose in the village blacksmith’s will of 1742. By the early 1800s the chapel was too small for the growing population and in 1840 it was redesigned and rebuilt by the Lancaster architect, Edmund Sharpe with the help of a personal contribution from Queen Victoria. The church features a number of stained glass windows designed by Shrigley and Hunt, Abbott and Company, and the Loyne Ecclesiastical Studios amongst others.
Jane Gray A.R.C.A. (b.1931) is a British stained glass artist. She studied stained glass at the Kingston School of Arts (1949-51) and later at the Royal College of Art (1951-55) under Lawrence Lee. Lee was so impressed with Gray’s work that he asked her to work alongside him on the design of ten nave windows for Coventry Cathedral. This six-year-long design project culminated in their final installation in 1962 after the cathedral’s consecration. Gray was the first woman to become a liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Glaziers and has designed more than a hundred windows in private and public buildings, chapels and over forty churches across the country, including St Peter’s, Martindale, Shrewsbury Abbey, St Oswald, Oswestry and St Mary, Chirk. Gray’s designs mark a crucial turning point in the history of stained glass art as the Victorian style gave way to a modern, aesthetic. In her work, Gray navigates this shift with a style that, whilst distinctly modern, retains a deep rooted sense of the medieval. Despite many of her commissions being for church windows, stained glass design was not simply about religious depiction for Gray, but more about ‘colour, shapes, luminosity, [and] playing with rainbows’.
