Title
Stained Glass Windows in Montreal at the Turn of the Century
Abstract
One of the first stained glass decorators in Montreal, and probably in Canada, was John C. Spence. His name first appears in Montreal directories in 1856-57. Other individuals and companies mentioned by the author are: Castle and Son, Montreal; Ballantyne and Son, Scotland; Wm. Morris and Co., Merton, England; Sullivan and Sweetman, Liverpool, England; Bromsgrove Guild, London, England; Davis, Archibald J.; LaFarge, John; Tiffany, Louis Comfort; and Hobbs Manufacturing Company Ltd., Montreal. The author discusses the introduction and development of stained glass in Canada, as exemplified by windows found in Montreal, in both churches and non-religious buildings, by both Canadian and British or American artists.
