ISBN: 9780916101435.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStained Glass in Catholic Philadelphia tells the remarkable story of the thousands of stained-glass windows - made in America, England, France, and Germany - in the more than 400 churches, chapels, and institutions of the five-county Archdiocese of Philadelphia. Since 1997 more than 450 sites have been visited to document the archdioceses windows by photographing them. This process resulted in the creation of a photo archive of over 50,000 images. Using this archive as a foundation, a team of scholars - from a variety of institutions and with specialties in medieval studies, architectural and social history, Christian iconography, decorative and liturgical arts, the craft, creative reuse, and historic preservation of stained glass - was assembled to study these windows. The result is this profusely illustrated book of original research that makes accessible a significant and highly visible, but neglected, aspect of our ecclesial, national, and regional cultural heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Brand: Saint Joseph's University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44662053437493,"sku":"ByrdShop_0916101436","price":225.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/ByrdShop_0916101436_eaad9aeb-a173-4fd9-9884-b9ded627f706.jpg?v=1784592196","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/stained-glass-in-catholic-philadelphia-9780916101435","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
