I would suggest that Joseph study Romanesque art. This period, which flourished from the 9th to the 12th centuries, is known for the early use of stained glass in churches and cathedrals. During this time, stained glass windows began to be used to illustrate biblical scenes and stories, marking the beginning of the technique's widespread use in religious settings. He can explore early examples such as the windows from the Abbey Church of Saint-Denis and other Romanesque churches, which laid the foundation for the more intricate and colorful stained glass that would develop in the following Gothic period.
Your classmate Joseph needs to deliver a presentation about a specific type of art. He asks you for advice on which type of art to choose. He is interested in stained glass and really wants to learn more about the earliest pieces of stained glass. He wants to research the first period in history during which stained glass became widely used and the first examples of artists creating an image or scene with stained glass. What type of art would you suggest he study?
