Saint Chapelle Paris






Visited this place in the mid 80s. Amazing. The stained glass goes 50 feet up or more.

I have seen beautiful stained glass work in many churches in the South of Mexico but this seems to beat them all. What a sight it must be!

The stained glass is beautiful. When I was in Europe I was still drinking and not yet into doing stained glass so I saw things but didn't remember them. (Of course, I remembered the bars!)

Sober, Tony and I were in New York and went to the Museum of Modern Art and saw a huge display of Tiffany stained glass. They also had "The Gates of Hell" by Rodin on loan from a Paris museum. Tony had to drag me away from that, cause I just sat there for a long time looking at them and admiring them.
