061226.Nympsfield, Chapel Snowflake Rose Window in the Gothic Flamboyant Style
December 26, 2006 at 6:54 AM | Posted in Architecture, Cathedrals and churches, Cloisters, Light and Shadow, Nymsfield, Stained Glass | 6 Comments
This window was designed by Benjamin Bucknall and heavily influenced by French Gothic-enthusiast Violet-le-Duc, who even sent over French glaziers to put in the white “pre-stained” glass for the initial construction phases. The chapel is the grandest room in Woodchester Mansion, but it has been severely damaged by a failed rainwater drainage system. Ho, ho, ho!
