Dazzling Stained Glass Images,
By Mrs Valerie Madgett (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cathedral Stained Glass Coloring Book (Dover Stained Glass Coloring Book) (Paperback)
The designs in this coloring book are derived from the best of mediaeval stained glass, starting with the oldest surviving example of complete windows in Augsburg Cathedral, dating from the late eleventh century. Ed Sibbett has reproduced clearly and faithfully selected panels of windows. You may be inspired to carry out further research in order to discover the full beauty of these works of art. Teachers would find this book a valuable resource lessons for art, history and religion. Classroom windows covered with these images would dazzle!

4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent resource for the classroom!,

This review is from: Cathedral Stained Glass Coloring Book (Dover Stained Glass Coloring Book) (Paperback)
I've used this book in my 7th grade Middle Ages project with great success. The images in the book are literally jaw-droppingly gorgeous, but not too hard for students to use in making larger "windows." The paper is heavy-duty, can be easly removed from the book and taped to an overhead for tracing. They should last a long time. The only "problems" are that the pictures aren't numbered so matching them to the source list at the back of the book is tricky - I just number them myself before cutting out. Also, I would have liked to see a sturdier cover for the pages. Once cut out, they tend to get bent. If you want kids to work on research with a project to enhance their papers, this is a good source or if you have kids whose main focus is on a project, this book is invaluable.

Art Teacher - Thematic Units,
By
This review is from: Cathedral Stained Glass Coloring Book (Dover Stained Glass Coloring Book) (Paperback)
This book was a great resource for our middle ages thematic unit. We had students use math to draw an enlarged version of each picture, and then we made a faux stained glass art project with our "life-sized" stained glass. We put them in the classroom windows. . . stunning!
