• Stained Glass and Colored Glass

  “In any glass-work built up of metal-joined pieces, the leading itself is a real element in the beauty of the composition. Whether the glass be colored or clear, and no matter what design the whole may represent, the lines of the leading never should be considered as an interference with the treatment of the subject, but rather, as giving additional values. In some cases, for example, lines of unusual weight may add distinction and impressiveness.
  
  So well recognized was this principle by the makers of medieval church windows that many of the most famous designs in stained glass were based wholly upon the lines of the leading. In succeeding periods, as the art declined, the workers manifestly began to treat the leading as a defect, or at least an obstacle. More and more they tried to make the leaded stained glass look like a painting.
  
  In yielding to this cardinal error, the vital spirit of leaded glass art was lost. This art, whether colored or clear glass be its medium, is a decorative system that belongs exclusively to glass, and should imitate no other system.”
