From Heaven to Earth - The Stained Glass of Christopher Webb (Wednesday 30 October, 7pm)

Christopher Webb's reputation as a stained glass designer and artist was at its height in the decades immediately before (the 1930s) and after (1946 to 1955) the Second World War; and during his active career from 1920 to 1964 he produced over 400 windows with a distinctive character and style, as well as designing a wide selection of other church art. Now that his work has been comprehensively listed, and a large collection of design sketches, full-size cartoons and other material given to the Stained Glass Museum, it is timely to reassess his work and its contribution to English stained glass in the 20th century.

Canon John Edwards is a retired Anglican priest in the Diocese of Oxford. Since 2015 he has been researching Webb's work and his circle of friends, collaborators and fellow artists, and has lectured and written extensively about them.
