Danford Chapel clerestory today's Daily Wright
Posted: Mon Apr 25, 2011 8:26 am
Todays' Daily Wright image is an image I need to discuss. SDR, (I think you receive Daily Wright) would you post it please?
It is a photo of the Danford Chapel (Minor Chapel, 1954) at FSC; a view of the terrace and clerestory windows. These appear to be rippled orange colored glass and clear rippled glass.
There is a lower left to upper right diagonal dark (wood?) mullion. A shorter vertical mullion divides the resulting resting triangle.
There are 4 vertical pieces of colored glass: one at the right and left sides of the windows, the short side of each triangle, and one flanking each side of the mullion bisecting the resting triangle.
The clerestory rectangle shape is divided in half because the vertical dark mullion is directly on mark with the join in the clear class section above.
Storrer identifies them as leaded glass joins.
From the picture this does not seem to be a perf window (cut out wood panel). Can any one confirm the fabrication as window mullions? wood?
Do the other glass windows behind the altar also use mullions to divide colored and clear glass panes?
How does this relate to the assembly room windows at Jiyu Gakuen (1921) with wood panel sections?
(BTW, in ordinary modern stained glass terms rippled is often called FLW glass. Like he was the only one using it?)
