Lettering taken from African American spirituals runs through this design for a stained glass window, placing sacred song at the center of the composition. Studios working in this medium often produced a full-scale or scaled drawing, called a cartoon, that guided glaziers as they cut colored glass and joined the pieces with lead came. Spirituals grew out of enslaved communities and later entered church hymnals and concert halls, giving makers a way to bring voices of faith and endurance into a religious setting. Look closely at how the text and the layout work together as a single design.
