Stained Glass Design

Provenance: the artist's studio sale
Warrington Hospital was originally built as an isolation hospital in 1893. The Warrington Union Workhouse Infirmary was built on the site shortly after in 1898, and it was occupied by the Whitecross Military Hospital during the First World War. It wasn’t until 1930, that the infirmary officially became the Warrington Borough General Hospital. Gray’s design for this window in the hospital’s chapel wonderfully demonstrates her colourful, modern style and features the Cross suspended between land and sky, and a line from Psalm 139: ‘O Lord, Thou hast searched me out and known me’. This was one of Gray’s simplest but most favourite window designs, it was installed in the chapel in 1984.
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’.
