• Resumen

  • During the first third of the 17th century, Paris experienced an economic and spiritual renewal that largely benefitted the churches; numerous construction sites were undertaken at that time. Windows, with entirely new shapes were often adorned with transparent glass allowing light to more readily enter. Traditional glass painting that had not disappeared was adapted to these new architecural concepts. Borders painted with enamel came to enrich the decoration of the windows and drew their inspiration in the taste of the period for nature and flowers, probably under the influence of painters coming from the North. Towards the end of the 17th century, a new style of borders appeared, marked by the development of the Eucharistic cult before painting on glass definitively gave way to the glass industry of the following century.
