La Sagrada Familia

The church has stained glass on various windows and openings. The ones done by the stained glass maker Joan Vila-Grau since 1999 are outstanding; they are made of panes of different colours fixed with lead and concrete. In these pieces of stained glass, Vila-Grau symbolises specific themes through the masses of colour.
The first stained glass windows to be placed were in the transepts, and they express the symbology conceived by Gaudí.

This photo reminds me of the awe I experienced when I first walked into that building.

conveys the spirit of the glass and modern articulation of the masonry very well and so pleased to know the stained glass artist
