Stained
glass is an art form that is given life by the energy and dynamics
of light. In its simplest form, a stained glass window is composed
of a variety of glass pieces held together usually made of lead. The
process for creating these decorative panels has remained relatively
unchanged since the craft was developed in the Middle Ages.
