A watercolour design for a stained glass window, with its mountain landscape rendered in soft washes, shows how the window's makers planned their work before any glass was cut. Designs like this were typically drawn full size or near full size, so the painter could judge the tones and the way light would pass through each panel. Mountain scenes appeared often in religious glass of the period, where distant peaks could suggest sanctity, endurance or the presence of God above the everyday world. Stained glass studios relied on such drawings as the working guide for cutting, painting and leading the pieces, which is why surviving designs are valued as records of the craft.
