Reproduction of German made tracery.
Historic stained glass windows offer Beyer Studio artists a rich educational resource for learning the craft of stained glass. Many windows found in American churches from the late 19th and early 20th centuries were designed and crafted in Europe. This decorative rose panel is a reproduction by our studio artists based on a quatrefoil tracery section made by Franz Mayer and Co. of Munich, Germany in 1889. Measuring 28 inches in diameter, this panel celebrates the elaborate and prolific organic decoration that is characteristic of neo-Gothic German windows. The lily forms were traced and painted with vitreous glass paint, kiln-fired to fuse the paint to the glass and then embellished with silver nitrate stain which when kiln-fired produces the gold color seen in the stamens. Following the many centuries of the legacy of stained glass, the panel was assembled with extruded lead cames, soldered, weatherproofed and reinforced with steel bars. Initially a decorative tracery element above a Gothic-style narrative religious window, the inspirational quatrefoil shape with lilies would have also embellished the pictorial window through symbolism. The reproduction panel as well can still reference religious symbolism for us; and yet, independent of the context of a sacred setting, the floral and symmetrical pattern exists equally well in a formal, secular aesthetic. The reinforcing bars on this panel have holes drilled into the ends for hanging as an autonomous panel but could also be installed architecturally. The panel is made to order. The cost is $1,500 plus shipping.
Pennsylvania residents will be charged appropriate sales tax.
