Provenance: the artist's studio sale
The country Church of St Peter and St John the Baptist in Wivelsfield, East Sussex, dates back to around the 11th century. Since then it has undergone several renovations; the south aisle is 13th century, the tall south chapel is 14th century, the southwest tower was built around 1500 and the chancel was lengthened in the 19th century. Originally, the church was a chapelry of Ditchling, and it wasn't until after the Reformation that the church separated completely. This window was commissioned to commemorate Sir Bryant Godman Irvine, former Deputy Speaker of the House of Commons, and to his wife, and features both their family crests. The window was installed in 1995.
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’.
