Twentieth and twenty first century stained glass is awe inspiring

My favourites are those stained glass windows made from war-damaged fragments, with the most iconic example being Winchester Cathedral's West Window, where Cromwell's forces shattered medieval glass during the English Civil War, and the pieces were later reassembled in a mosaic style, creating a unique, abstract masterpiece that tells a story of destruction and renewal. Many other churches and memorials, like St. Marylebone in London and churches with fragments from WW2 battlefields (such as one in Edmonton, Canada), have similar windows, repurposing shattered glass from bombings or iconoclasm into borders or new designs, symbolizing resilience and remembrance.
