WORKING TEMPLATES FOR STAINED GLASS WINDOW

Artist: AITCHISON, CRAIGIE

Medium: PHOTOGRAPHIC

This fantastic and unexpected donation comes from Neil Philips, who was responsible for the fabrication of the windows designed by Craigie Aitchison (1926-2009) for St. Mary's Church, The Boltons, London. The three templates being sold are iconic images from Aitchison's work, the Crucixion, a Bedlington terrier and a lone Cyprus tree. I have liaised with Terry Danziger-Miles, from the Timothy Taylor Gallery, London, who are the Executers of the Craigie Aitchison Estate. The Crucixion is in two pieces. It's height is 96 x 60cm. The Cyprus tree is 63 x 12cm and the Bedlington Terrier is 36 x 45cm.
Although not an original work or in fantastic condition as they were literally used in the construction, these templates are usually destroyed so it is a unique opportunity to acquire them. Please look at the website for the Church at www.stmarytheboltons.org.uk - click on the WELCOME button and then select Craigie Aitchison. if you are interested in this lot do contact me for further images or details.
With huge thanks to Neil Philips for donating these templates and the advice of Terry Danziger-Miles at the Timothy Taylor Gallery, London SEE ALSO LOT OF DIANA CUMMINGS PRINT
