Which artistic movement revived medieval stained-glass design in 19th-century Britain?

The Gothic Revival revived medieval stained-glass design in nineteenth-century Britain.

The movement developed alongside renewed interest in medieval architecture, religion, and craftsmanship. Architects and designers looked to medieval cathedrals for forms such as pointed arches, tracery, biblical imagery, and intensely colored glass. The revival became especially influential in churches, colleges, and civic buildings.

Britain’s Gothic Revival was closely connected with the Oxford Movement and with changing ideas about church decoration. Important designers and workshops included William Morris, Edward Burne-Jones, Ford Madox Brown, and Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co.

The Arts and Crafts movement later shared the Gothic Revival’s admiration for handwork, but the two terms are not identical. Gothic Revival primarily refers to the renewed use of medieval Gothic forms, while Arts and Crafts emphasized the social and artistic value of handmade production.
