Interior of the Sagrada Família in Barcelona, looking up at a wall of tall windows and circular openings. Bright red, orange and yellow stained glass glows on the right while pale uncoloured openings on the left flood the dark stone interior with white light, creating a strong contrast of colour and geometry.

Interior of Barcelona’s Sagrada Família, with colourful stained-glass windows glowing against dark stonework. Warm oranges, reds and yellows dominate the left, while greens, turquoise, blues and purples fill the right. Circular rose windows sit above rows of tall, narrow windows.

Expressive watercolour and ink painting of the stained-glass interior of Barcelona’s Sagrada Família by Jesse Waugh. Loose black outlines and grey washes depict the architecture, with windows rendered in red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. A broad beige column divides the composition, and the artist’s name appears along the bottom.

An elegant narrow neck bows out slightly at the top, and is flanked by delicate handles either side, together forming a heart shape.

#GlassObjectThursday 🏺
Knobbed #Roman beaker of blue glass blown into silver case, possibly from Brindisi, 1st C.
May represent special, apparently fashionable, technique described by elder Pliny where openwork designs were cut out of silver casings for glass, 50-100AD.
A British Museum favourite.

A bulbous vessel, with a smaller base and curving in slightly to rim at top. It is cased in silver, with oval shapes cut out all round, larger at the wider section than at the more narrow bottom and top. Deep blue glass has been blown into the casing so that cushions of blue glass protrude out through the ovals.
