Large 19th Century Ecclesiastical Stained Glass Window
About the Item
A large antique late 19th century Ecclesiastical style stained glass window signed by Ward & Hughes, London, 1890. This window is of excellent artistry, with each tiny detail hand painted by a late 19th century artist.
The stained glass depicts a religious scene, thought to be Joseph being visited by one of the Lord’s angels in a dream. The angel told Joseph to not be afraid and take Mary home as his wife, because what was conceived in her was from the Holy Spirit. The angel said they will call their son Jesus because he was to save his people from their sins.
A piece of art showcasing such religious meaning, only deserves to be pride of place inside a home or property - perhaps even a new addition to a church or chapel.
Ward & Hughes, London
Ward & Hughes, based in Frith St, Soho, London, proved to be one of the most successful stained glass studios of its time, known for its distinctive style.
It was initially a partnership between Thomas Ward and James Henry Nixon. Henry Hughes joined the firm in 1850 and became a partner in 1857.
In the 1870s and 80s, windows of similar styles were signed as both 'Ward & Hughes' and 'H. Hughes'. After Hughes' death, Thomas Figgis Curtis took over the firm.
The windows were often still signed Ward & Hughes for a time, and then as T.F. Curtis, Ward & Hughes. The firm was more likely to sign its work than many contemporary firms, making its work easier to identify.
