内容説明・目次

内容説明

York Minster's medieval stained glass is without parallel in England, both for quality and quantity. The great east window, the largest in the Minster, contains some of the finest fifteenth-century glass in Europe. The splendour of its design and layout, and the brilliance of its painting and colour, are acknowledged wherever the glass is discussed. The 188 colour and black-and-white illustrations in this volume reveal the tremendous sweep of the window's subject-matter, ranging from the Creation of the World to visionary scenes of the Last Judgement, depicted in dramatic detail. Tom French's unique grasp of the material enriches his full description of the glass. The publication of this glass, long overdue, is of paramount importance for the study of the art, history and thought-world of the Middle Ages.
