{"product_id":"henry-holiday","title":"Henry Holiday","description":"\u003cp\u003eHenry Holiday (1839–1927) was a polymath who counted figures such as Lewis Carroll, William Morris, Edward Burne-Jones and Emmeline Pankhurst as his friends. Most significantly, he was unquestionably one of the greatest stained-glass artists of the Victorian-Edwardian period, yet his considerable achievements have not received the recognition that they deserve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaking Holiday’s commissions for New York State churches as its focus, George Bryant’s ground-breaking study places the artist’s transatlantic accomplishments in the context of the social, artistic, religious and economic shifts that shaped his success in the US during America’s Gilded Age – a period where existing social hierarchies were challenged by new money and European immigration that ended with the outbreak of the First World War. Also providing a clear understanding of the technical and aesthetic differences that set Holiday's stained glass apart from that of his contemporaries such as Edward Burne-Jones, La Farge, and Tiffany, Bryant's truly original publication, based on substantial archival research, makes a significant contribution to our understanding of nineteenth-century stained-glass design and Henry Holiday's important achievements.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lund Humphries Publishers Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54232157192536,"sku":"9781848225602","price":87.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781848225602_1f98c130-f586-4ad1-9e61-966d4b4dae29.jpg?v=1778548537","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/henry-holiday","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
