People assume that they are looking at painted or stained-glass windows, the reality is quite different: The windows are rare examples of scherenschnitte, the Northern European art of elaborately cut paper.<br>Church, who had seen wooden lattice shutters in the Middle East, copied the effect for his home by sandwiching paper cut in geometrical shapes between two panes of glass.<br>While two of the windows, a large one on the staircase in the Court Hall and another in the vestibule, are Church's originals, the smaller window in the Gallery Hall is a restoration by Pamela Dalton, a cut-paper artist who lives in Harlemville, N.Y., 30 miles north of Olana.<br>OK, I copied this info from a brochure but if you ever get to the States I think you would love to see these windows.<br>X David, NYCDAVID McGRIEVEYhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14571549011782781097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4319059518228022569.post-16995428409933883092010-08-15T14:07:28.399-07:002010-08-15T14:07:28.399-07:00Yes... certainly torment goes with the job!
