GLASS HISTORY:
John Piper and Stained Glass
June Osborne / Hardcover 224 pages / Published 1997
(Ships within 2-3 days, usually) Written in collaboration with his widow, this is the first book to explore and reproduce the magnificent stained glass of this renowned 20th century artist.
Excellent gathering of Piper's stained glass Reviewer: donovan@ihug.co.nz from Auckland, New Zealand December 8, 1997 The author places John Piper and his work into the historical continuum of stained glass so that we appreciate the great contribution he has made in design, creative advance and the fearless use of modern materials. She does not assume technical knowledge on the reader's part and so gives clear descriptions of processes and materials. The net outcome of the book is to give Piper the recognition he deserves not only as a stained-glass artist but also as one of the leading - if comparatively under-rated - English artists of the 20th century. The book is profusely illustrated in colour the only let-down being the quality of some of the photographs, too many are either not sharp or over-exposed. Thus a rating of 7.
