These designs for two stained glass windows with flower ornaments, were made anonymously, and I love the free-flowing, looping forms – like tendrils reaching out. I’m picturing the artist working methodically, but also intuitively, repeating motifs, and adjusting the composition as they go. You know, you can feel them searching and experimenting. The palette is restrained, mostly light and dark browns with hints of red, and a pale purple-blue. I imagine the light filtering through the stained glass, creating shifting patterns and colors. It reminds me of Gustav Klimt’s decorative style, with the emphasis on ornamental patterns and flowing lines. The floral motifs feel organic but also stylized, like nature seen through an Art Nouveau lens. Each tiny mark, each variation in line weight, speaks to the artist’s touch and the unfolding conversation. So, this artwork isn’t just a design, it's a record of a creative exchange, connecting us to other artists across time.
