Knole Decorative and Fine Arts Society will invite Susie Harries to talk on the narrative aspects of stained glass, from medieval to modern times, and in a variety of contexts, both religious and secular. The talk will look at the potential of stained glass to play politics, bribe bishops, recruit soldiers and tell jokes. It will include thoughts on stained glass stories in the local area.
Susie Harries is a writer, lecturer and editor, specialising in culture, history and the arts. Her most recent book is the prize-winning biography of Sir Nikolaus Pevsner.
Visitors are welcome to the lecture for a fee of £5 payable on the day, and the membership secretary should be contacted in advance.
The lecture will take place at Sevenoaks Community Centre, Otford Road, Sevenoaks, TN14 5DN.
