EN
The interesting question of the stained glass heritage in Poland remains little known. Neither the state of the registration of the monuments nor pertinent knowledge correspond to the actual dimension and value of the resources, with scarce examples of mediaeval stained glass being the best examined. Consecutive generations have been studied only in several centres which, on the one hand, concentrate numerous valuable works and, on the other hand, involve researchers particularly interested in stained glass (Cracow, Wrocław, Toruń, Łodź, Poznań). The sole institution conducting more systematic work on the subject is the ARS VITREA POLONA Association of Lovers of Stained Glass. The article considers briefly consecutive generations of monuments of this category of art: rare and precious mediaeval relics, modern study stained glass, the historicising and eclectic stained glass of the nineteenth century, windows maintained in the Art Nouveau spirit, and the particularly relevant – and stylistically distinct – Young Poland monuments. Finally, the author focused on the protection and conservation of stained glass, indicating the errors frequently committed due to an insufficient appreciation of the technical-artistic uniqueness of this domain of the arts, and expressing her opinion about the sense of embarking upon stained glass projects according to historical cartoons never before executed in glass. The article ends with a discussion of new stained glass in historical objects.
