Perugia- Last day at Civitella

Visited the Studio Moretti Caselli in Perugia where the same family has been creating painted stained glass since the mid 19th century when Francesco Moretti began producing stained glass. Francesco combined his artistic gift with new techniques that he invented to meld the paint to the glass. His works are incredible, and the family continues the work today.

Queen Margarita of Italy- one of Francesco’s early pieces. This stained glass is exquisite- the color, detail and beauty are incredible!
