Summary: The age-old craft of the stained glass artisan is alive and well, as evidenced by the strong sales of Dover's extensive line of stained glass instruction and pattern books. Carolyn Relei has skillfully adapted over 100 authentic Art Nouveau patterns for stained glass windows. Among them are a lovely winged damsel surrounded by florals and vines, vases of lush, willowy blossoms, and a butterfly whose wing patterns are repeated in the design's floral theme. Handsomely displayed in rectangular, oval, circular and semi-circular frames, these copyright-free patterns -- accessible to stained glass workers at all levels of expertise -- will also find a wide range of uses among graphic artists, designers, and needlecrafters. Some patterns are simple enough for beginners; other, more challenging motifs, will appeal to intermediate and advanced craftworkers. All are sure to attract stained glass artists who admire the Art Nouveau style.
