Glencairn Museum
and great hall are covered (floor to ceiling) with intricate mosaic work. Their
subtle coloring and symbolic imagery will help develop and refine your ability
to select and combine colors to create meaningful artwork.
At Bryn Athyn Cathedral every surface exemplifies Arts and Crafts handiwork:
The contours of carefully chiseled stonework set off amazing color varia-
tions, and the juxtaposition of different kinds of stone create striking color
combinations. The figurative and decorative capitals are brilliant examples of
different stone carving techniques. If you are interested in metal forging, you
will appreciate the intricate scroll-work of monel doors, as well as handmade
door knobs, keys, and locking mechanisms throughout the cathedral. You can
handle the railings, hinges, and bolts made by master craftsmen at the turn
of the twentieth century.
