This book was released on 2016-02-08 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the aesthetic, symbolic, and cultural concepts of radiance and beauty in stained glass in modern art; global exchanges between stained-glass artists in Europe and the Americas; and the transformation of stained glass from religious decoration to secular material culture. Unique features of the book include its geographic breadth, encompassing England, France, Italy, USA, and Mexico, and its inclusion of American female glassmakers. Essays consider how stained glass became an art form during this time, and show how the narrative for the figurative design drew from the Bible, mythology, history, literature, and the symbolism of the time, including popular culture such as ecology and materiality. Written for students and the general public interested in the humanities, literature, history, art history, and new media and popular culture, this book examines the visual beauty and symbolism of stained-glass windows in Europe and American cultures during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries – the modern era.

Book excerpt: Continuing from the acclaimed 'Angels & Icons', this volume, 'Damozels & Deities', traces the development of stained glass, viewed as an art form, from 1870 to the death of Burne-Jones in 1898. Over this period the public’s interest in the creative arts enabled the Aesthetic Movement to flourish. Ecclesiastical windows grew more beautiful and secular in appearance, with domestic glass becoming indistinguishable from that found in churches."--dust-jacket.

Book excerpt: “A vision from the past becomes a writer's deadly obsession.” The Portrait is a Gothic horror about Victoria Frost, an author who develops an unhealthy obsession for her character. As events unfold, her obsession begins to turn on her and leads the author to question her sanity. Is this simply insanity or are there other factors in play? The Portrait is a mixture of contemporary and historical scenes with the latter revolving around her muse. In this novel, the author will revisit an iconic scene using both prose and art yielding new pieces to the puzzle with every pass.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the centuries stained-glass windows have been a symbol of Christianity and their message has been to communicate the Gospel with illustrations from the Bible. If stained-glass windows could speak, what would they say? This book shares their profound message of the Gospel.Stained Glass Windows is an inspirational book that presents the Gospel in glass. To the Christian...it will renew and revive faith in Christ. To the new believer...it will disciple, guide, and strengthen faith. To the unbeliever...it will introduce fundamental Christian truths.The ultimate mission of this evangelical book is to share the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ and to bring glory to God by making an eternal difference in the lives to all who read it.Using a metaphoric style the author presents the Gospel in a most unusual way. Christians are compared to stained-glass windows. Just as light passes through a stained-glass window, causing the jewel-like colors to radiate and sparkle, the Holy Spirit reflects the life of God within a believer. This book will take you on a journey through the Bible as each stained-glass portrait is explored.Every page of Stained Glass Windows emphasizes the authority of the Holy Bible and the revelation of the Holy Spirit. This book can be used in Bible studies. It is also an excellent evangelistic tool and a Gospel handbook.Krista Capozzoli resides in southwestern Pennsylvania with her twin sister, niece, and two beloved cats. She has a background in Christian Ministry and Theology, and her goal is to communicate God's Word effectively by sharing her unique biblical insights. Her mission as a teacher of God's Word is to teach the Bible with an innovative approach. Her writing style is profound, inspirational, and thematic. Krista reaches out to teens, young adults, and adults with her "writing ministry."
