INTRICATE….Craftsmanship

I am not religious but cannot help to be moved by the architecture and the drama that was created by Stonemasons centuries ago in creating places of worship.  But if I had to isolate one feature in all these buildings that I admire most it would be the Stained glass (or Painted) Windows.

An intricate blend of stone carving, glass cutting and colouring and lead work to contain and separate the features.  The fact that so many remain after all these centuries is a marvel in its own right.
