Stained Glass Design
Watercolour
18 x 13 cm
Signed, dated and studio stamp verso
Provenance: the artist's studio sale
St Peter’s Church was designed by the Liverpudlian architect, Charles Reed in the Early English style and built in 1850 with stone donated from Lady Hoghton’s nearby quarry. Reed wrote, ‘The general effect is expected to be very quaint and beautiful, while its elevated situation will make it a charming landmark from every side’. The church was consecrated on St Mark’s Day, 1851 by the first Bishop of Manchester, the Rt. Revd. James Prince Lee. This window was installed in 1988.
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’.
