GOUDA, NETHERLANDS – The finest working drawings of glass-painter Dirck Crabeth have now been brought together in MuseumgoudA . He designed and painted the most beautiful windows in the Sint-Janskerk , including the famous King’s Window. The exhibition sheds light on the consummate skill of this master artist. It also examines the historical, artistic, and technical aspects of both the working drawings and the stained-glass windows, as well as the stages leading from the drawings to the final windows. The exhibition opened to the public on 23 November 2011 until 09 April 2012.
