It was possible to identify thirteen stained glass examples in the central area of the city of Pelotas using a methodology of instrumental survey of cadastral records. The stained glass examples were analyzed according to formal and technological characteristics, and also aspects regarding its conservation and changes caused by the passage of time or by human intervention. The analysis showed different types of stained glasses considering either its iconography or its technological aspect. This survey of thirteen examples of stained glass carried out in the city of Pelotas showed that they represent the economic and cultural power of the city. Although there is a large gap it is possible to consider that the stained glasses represent a cultural manifestation with European influence although not related to the Portuguese tradition. As a symbol of economic and cultural progress of the city, its manufacture has not been very much changed through the years. The religious stained glasses identified date back to the medieval tradition, they represent the narrative and the mark of their donor. The profane ones have decorative characteristics representing floral or bucolic motifs related to the New Art tradition and the movements of Applied Arts / Para compreender a manifestação da arte do vitral do século XX na cidade de Pelotas, foi necessário conhecê-la em seu aspecto geral, seu processo evolutivo, histórico, suas características tecnológicas e compositivas, assim como seu processo de degradação. A partir de uma metodologia de levantamento instrumentalizado com fichas cadastrais, foi possível identificar treze exemplares de vitrais na zona central da cidade de Pelotas. Os exemplares foram analisados quanto as suas características formais e tecnológicas e, também, quanto aos aspectos de conservação e alterações causadas pela ação do tempo ou pela intervenção humana. A análise permitiu identificar diferentes tipologias de vitrais, que r seja sob o olhar tecnológico quer sob o olhar iconográfico. O levantamento dos exemplares de vitrais pelotenses, feito nesta pesquisa, mostrou serem estes representativos do poder econômico e cultural da cidade e que, apesar de grandes lacunas, pode-se considerar que estes representam uma manifestação cultural com influência europeia sem, no entanto, se vincular à tradição portuguesa, e que, sendo um símbolo de progresso econômico e social da cidade, sua manufatura pouco se alterou desde as suas origens. Os vitrais religiosos identificados remontam à tradição medieval da narrativa e da presença da marca dos doadores. Os vitrais profanos trazem características decorativas representando motivos florais ou bucólicos, vinculados à tradição da Arte Nova e dos movimentos de Artes Aplicadas

Cette thèse s'inscrit dans le cadre de l'étude des relations entre structure et propriétés des verres. La coloration des verres par les métaux de transition en est une des plus belles illustrations et sa compréhension constitue une étape fondamentale de l'étude des vitraux du Moyen Age. L'opportunité unique de la dépose des vitraux du XIIIe siècle de la Sainte-Chapelle de Paris a permis d'appliquer la démarche multidisciplinaire développée dans cette thèse pour comprendre la coloration des verres.Dans le au cas des verres bleus colorés par Co2+, ce travail a nécessité une démarche s’appuyant sur la spectroscopie fondamentale combinant des méthodes expérimentales (XANES et EXAFS au seuil K du cobalt et spectroscopie d'absorption optique) et théorique (calculs multiélectroniques dans l'approche en champ de ligand des pré-seuils K), pour mieux comprendre l'environnement local du Co2+ dans les verres. L'influence de la symétrie locale du site de Co2+ sur l'hybridation p-d et sa signature spectroscopique a été montrée grâce à des références cristallines. Les espèces penta-coordonnées ont pu alors être identifiées dans des verres modèles, nous permettant de proposer des modèles structuraux impliquant plusieurs espèces. Les proportions relatives de ses espèces sont contrôlées par les capacités de compensation de charge des cations du verre.Les deux principales nuances de bleu des verres du XIIIe siècle de la Sainte-Chapelle de Paris sont dues à Co2+ et Fe2+ tandis que le cuivre, également présent, est majoritairement monovalent et incolore, preuve des conditions réductrices de fabrication des verres de cette époque. / This thesis is part of the general framework of the study of structure-properties relationships in glasses. Understanding the coloring properties of transition metal ions in glass is an essential step in the study of Middle Age stained glass windows. The restoration work of the 13th century stained glass windows of the Holly Chapel of Paris provided a unique opportunity of apply the multidisciplinary approach of the question of glass color.In the particular case of blue glasses colored by, this study relied on a fundamental approach based on experimental (optical absorption, K-edge XANES and EXAFS spectroscopies) and theoretical tools (ligand field multiplet calculations of the pre-edge), to understand the local environment of Co2+ in glasses and the spectroscopic signature of Co2+ in unusual sites.The influence of the point group symmetry of Co site on the p-d hybridization and Co2+ spectroscopic signature was defined by comparison with crystalline references. Five-fold coordinated species have been identified in model glasses of simplified composition. This provided structural models based on 4-, 5- and 6-fold coordinated Co species for borate glasses and 4- and 5-fold coordinated Co species for silicate glasses, which are controlled by the charge compensating properties of the glass cations.Eventually, two main shades of blue have been identified in the 13th century glasses from the Holly Chapel of Paris, attributed to Co2+ and Fe2+, while, copper although present, mainly occurs as colorless Cu+, as a proof of reducing melting conditions. This provides first insights into the Middle Age glass manufacturing process.

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o conteúdo mineral do esmalte dental bovino após procedimentos de clareamento dental (PH) e escovação simulada (ES) com dentifrício clareador, após manchamento prévio com bebida corante (CC). Foram utilizados fragmentos dentais bovinos, divididos em sete grupos (n=8). Os grupos três, cinco e seis foram previamente manchados com coca - cola light lemon (CC). Os grupos um, três, quatro e cinco, clareados com peróxido de Hidrogênio a 38% (PH) e, os grupos um, dois e cinco foram submetidos à escovação simulada (ES). Todos os grupos foram previamente analisados no EDX antes de qualquer tratamento e após todos os procedimentos e os dados submetidos à análise de variância. Concluiu-se que o clareamento dental, realizado com peróxido de hidrogênio 38%, foi capaz de promover diminuição significativa de cálcio e fosfato no esmalte dental bovino. A coca - cola light lemon e a escovação não aumentaram a perda mineral do esmalte dental bovino. / The goal of this survey was to analyze the mineral content of bovine dental stained enamel (CC), dental bleaching (PH) and simulated brushing with (ES) whitening dentifrice. Bovine dental specimens were used and divided in seven group (n=8). Groups three, five and six were previously stained in Coca Cola ligth lemon (CC). Groups one, three, four and five were bleached with 38% hydrogen peroxide (PH). Groups one, two, five and five were submitted to simulated brushing (ES). All groups were analyzed in EDX before and after treatment. Data statisticaly were analyzed using analysis of variance ( p< 0.05). Thirty- eight percent hydrogen peroxide bleaching was able to develop significant Calcium and Phosphate decrease in bovine enamel. The Coca-cola light lemon refreshment and simulated brushing did not increased mineral loss from enamel but, the soft drink, staining Coca Cola light lemon alone, was of developing enamel darknese.

The literature on the stained glass windows installed in the eight oculi of the drum of Santa Maria del Fiore are mainly found in the monographs of the four artists that provided the cartoons--Donatello, Lorenzo Ghiberti, Paolo Uccello, and Andrea del Castagno. Few studies have focused on the program in its entirety. This thesis will attempt to provide a more thorough understanding of the program. Analysis of the primary documents reveals how the windows functioned as part of the building and its liturgical and public life. In particular, the central argument is that Donatello's Coronation of the Virgin was a substitute for an altarpiece and the seven other windows act as subsidiary scenes that reinforce the primary window and its political and theological agenda. / Art History

This thesis studies the use of stained glass as a building material and how it can enhance the visual presence of light, materiality and space in a building interior. Lighting, color, and texture were integral paths of study which culminated in a stained glass installation at the concrete Cube at the Research + Design Facility in Blacksburg, Virginia. The resulting space becomes a room that reveals a dimension of architectural space not rarely studied or thought about when designing, revealing the way light continually shapes and defines a space throughout the seasons and time of day. The goal of the installation is to highlight ordinary conditions of light and space in a new light through color intervention of the interior. / Master of Architecture

Cette recherche a pour ambition d'étudier les vitraux, les commanditaires et les peintres-verriers de la fin du Moyen Age au début du XVIIe siècle dans l'Est du Bassin parisien, c'est-à-dire dans un secteur géographique couvrant des territoires où il reste parfois beaucoup de vitraux en place (pays troyen, par exemple) et d'autres où il ne subsiste presque rien, comme dans les Ardennes ou l'Aisne. Cependant, il est possible, grâce aux sources d'archives, de fournir un tableau des foyers de peinture sur verre dans des villes où l'absence de vestiges ne laisse pas supposer qu'on y ait produit du vitrail (Mézières, Laon). Ces sources, comptables, judiciaires, notariales, réglementaires ou techniques, permettent, d'une part, de suivre sur le long terme les mécanismes de commande, de pose et d'entretien des verrières et, d'autre part, d'étudier les familles de peintres-verriers qui ont été actives dans la plupart des cités du territoire couvert par notre étude. Nous avons donc tenté d'élaborer une définition du métier de peintre-verrier tenant compte des circonstances (métier réglementé ou non) ainsi que de la teneur exacte des activités des peintres-verriers qui sont, comme dans de nombreux autres pays, souvent polyvalents, les spécialisations dépendant du contexte artistique, économique et familial. Les source anciennes enrichissent aussi l'approche iconographique en contribuant à affiner notre connaissance des corpus de vitraux posés dans un espace géographique et pour une période donnés : si l'iconographie dépend pour une bonne part du statut du commanditaire et de sa culture, les dévotions locales, la nature de l'édifice et les modes ont aussi joué un rôle. / This project is a study of the stained-glass windows, patrons and painter-glassworkers of the end of the Middle Ages. It focuses on the east Parisian Basin at the 16th and 17th centuries, an area which encompasses regions (such as that around Troyes) where there are many extant windows, and others (such as the Ardennes and Aisne) where almost nothing survives. Using archival sources, however, it is possible to supply a picture of glassmaking centre where no material evidence suggests that glass was manufactured (for example in Mézières and Laon). On the one hand, these sources allow us to trace the processes of patronage, production, installation and maintenance of windows over a period of time. On the other, they provide an insight into the families of glassworkers which were active in most of the cities covered by this study. Drawing on this evidence, this thesis presents an account of the painter-glassworker's craft, taking into account socio-historical circumstances (including guilds), as well as the details of their activities given in the records, which are often, as in other countries, rather vague and general, depending on artistic, economic and familial context for clarification. The historical sources can also enrich an iconographic understanding of the glass by helping to refine our knowledge of the windows within their geographical and temporal contexts : if their subject-matter depends on the status and culture of patrons, the nature of local devotion, the nature of the edifice and fashion must all be taken into account.

The world is a fractured place, faceted and fascinating in variety but broken in strife. Artist Gerhard Richter, said “Art is the highest form of hope” and the thinker Martin Heidegger said that art is a “happening of truth”. Marc Chagall hoped his art connected with people’s lives and sufferings and would become infused with prayer for redemption. How does visual art (and thinking theoretically and theologically about art) contribute toward hope and truth that bring the fragments of society into personal and communal connection? This is a practice-based (or studio-led) thesis in stained glass making at the juncture of the interdisciplinary fields of visual culture and religion. Making the visual art of stained glass windows involves collaborating, selecting, breaking, combining – processes that embody the unifying of disparate pieces. There are three projects and three chapters included in this research that work cohesively to show how visual art can facilitate a shift in us to see with compassion that guides our actions to care, and the word “EidenSight” is introduced to give vocabulary to this. Research draws primarily from reflections on collaborative studio work, visual art and visual artists, aesthetic theory (especially of Heidegger’s essay “The Origin of the Work of Art”) and thinking theologically through these sources. Stained glass has been a profession of work and a profession of faith; here the ancient art is created for contemporary places and raises questions theoretically and theologically and identifies themes that contribute to an understanding of how art affects us. Over the centuries, stained glass has contributed to architecture, art history, and theological aesthetics, as well as viewers’ personal and social experiences, from ecclesial settings to public spaces. This research contributes three commissioned site-specific stained glass installations (two in the US and one for the University of Stirling’s Art Collection) that lead the written thesis which is embedded full of images and has a correlating website: www.eidensite.weebly.com. The results are visual and verbal: requirements for the practice-based thesis include a heavily documented practical element in correlation with a shorter written component (30-80,000 words). Within the limits of these parameters, this research offers completed stained glass windows and a written thesis that includes insights from those projects, plus three chapters on: the material of glass, the space of the window, and the implications of being stained and a main conclusion that ties those elements together contributing to the overall thesis question: can art help us see with compassion that leads to care. Three institutions now have an original work of art substantiated by written theory, and the submitted thesis is substantiated by works of art viewable on different continents.

S’appuyant sur la petite structure créée à Pau, en 1862, les Mauméjean, père et fils, réussirent à développer une véritable firme internationale - basée en France (Paris, Hendaye) et en Espagne (Madrid, Barcelone, Saint-Sébastien) - qui, durant près d’un siècle, travailla à l’ornementation d’un nombre considérable d’édifices civils et religieux disséminés dans plus de vingt-cinq pays. Récompensé lors de l’Exposition des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes de 1925, leur travail fut pourtant, dès les années 1950, décrié, dévalorisé : pour répondre aux critères de la « noble expression artistique » un maître verrier devait nécessairement produire peu, dans une petite structure, avec de petits moyens. L’incroyable quantité de verrières sorties des ateliers Mauméjean contribua à forger le mythe d’une production sérielle, dépourvue de toute valeur esthétique. Malgré de récents apports, les recherches menées dans le domaine du vitrail semblent profondément marquées par cette traditionnelle opposition entre fabrication à grande échelle et artisanat. S’appuyant sur un large catalogue d’œuvres conservées en France, en Espagne ou aux États-Unis, ainsi que sur l’analyse d’un très riche fonds d’atelier, cette étude se propose d’interroger ces modèles de production, tout en réévaluant l’apport artistique d’une manufacture qui, offrant un remarquable exemple de réussite, participa activement au renouveau des arts industriels franco espagnols. / The Mauméjean family, father and sons, managed to develop a real international firm, from the small business they created in Pau, in 1862. For almost a century, this international firm, based in France (Paris and Hendaye) and Spain (Madrid, Barcelona and Saint-Sébastien), worked on the ornamentation of a significant number of both civil and religious edifices, scattered over more than twenty-five countries. Though their work was rewarded during the 1925 Exhibition of Decorative and Modern Industrial Arts, it was also disparaged and depreciated, as early as the 1950’s. Indeed, to meet the criteria of the “noble artistic expression”, a master glazier had to produce small quantities, in a small structure, and with little resources. The incredible quantity of windows realised by the Maumejeans’ workshop contributed to the creation of the myth of a mass production, devoid of aesthetic value. In spite of new contributions, researches made in the field of stained-glass windows seem to be marked by this traditional opposition between mass production and craft production. Relying on a large catalogue of works kept in France, Spain, or even in the USA, as relying on the analysis of a very extensive workshop collection, this study offers to question these models of production, reappraising the new artistic dimension brought by a manufacture which, giving a remarkable example of success, actively took part in the revival of the Franco-Spanish industrial arts.
