    I’m sad they passed away. But I’m so glad they used the whole window. They have left a legacy and a piece of magic in the world. Their families must be so proud. 🥰

    I live in NYC on the first floor and in the back of the building, so I don’t have what would be considered “a great view.” However, what I do have, which I think is even better, is a beautiful stained glass window, perfectly framed by my own window, in a church directly behind my building. Its nowhere near as stunning as the masterpieces of this gentleman, and his two master crafters, but lovely and charming nonetheless. I’ve always been fascinated by stained glass, and also so curious about the whole process, so thank you very much for this video. I thoroughly enjoyed it!🙏😊

    Hello from Brazil where there is not anymore colored glass. So since 2018 i collect sea glass and create my products with the eletrical coper cables and recicle what i found in the trash or old glass that crosses my way. Really outstanding work these guys. Tks to show unforgetable work./\

    So basically the person who creates the windows don't get the credit. Like Picasso. He never created a single print and he never made a single lino cut, but he gets the credit. Warhol never created a damn thing. But gets the credit. Nonsense

    39:58 The two sets of stained glasses appear surely entirely different in the atmosphere, age, style, colors, and designs. What Rowan did could even appear a later modern reproduction.
    43:03 what really needed to be compared are these two. After all, Rowan did a very similar design to his proposed initial design which was approved.
    The death of the dieter appeared with a tone that he died of cancer due to his ill-character and ill-decision towards Rowan's work.
    The death of Rowan appeared with a tone that it was honored and respected.
    WHAT DO YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE HERE, all the people who made this document???
    You mislead initially by comparing the wrong sets of designs to mislead viewers as if it was Rowan who totally changed the design and the atmosphere,
    then presented two deaths with such prejudices!
    Also, the title is "the secrets of stained glass making" but the content is not all about the secrets of stained glass making, but some events around the design and approval, a business side, that is.
    As a documentary, you give such prejudices over many aspects, and presented wrong materials on purpose, more like an intentional public lie.
    What a shame!
    Your youtube channel have done insults to many people in it.
    Unbelievable.
    Change your channel name, to possibly, "Fishing - a Lure for Undoubting Viewers"

    The video was splendid, but choose the better background score next time. This background score is perfect for dance documentaries, not the stained glass one!

    Light in Christianity doesn't mean physical
