Michael Healy, 1873-1941, An Tur Gloine’s Stained Glass Pioneer
The Dublin stained-glass pioneer who worked beside Clarke, Geddes and Hone, given the full scholarly study his windows had never previously received.
Healy worked at An Tur Gloine, the Dublin cooperative that made Ireland a centre of stained glass in the early twentieth century, alongside Harry Clarke, Wilhelmina Geddes and Evie Hone. Caron gives him the full scholarly treatment he has not previously had, with the windows photographed properly and the working methods reconstructed in detail.

An excellent book, can it be said that Michael Healy is Ireland’s fourth greatest stained glass artist? Clarke, Geddes, and Hone would be the top three? It is good to see him getting this attention. All the more reason to invest in this book. What an underrated European tradition.
