William Holland (stained glass maker)
William Holland (1809 – September 27, 1883) was a 19th-century British maker of stained glass and other decorative pieces. His work is represented in churches and stately homes across southern England, Wales, and Ireland. Holland of Warwick windows can be identified by his mark "Guil Holland Vaivic. Puix " written on a scroll in Latin in the lower right hand corner.〔(The mark of William Holland of Warwick in the lower right-hand corner of the Chetwode east window, 1842 in the style of the window immediately to its right (still containing medieval glass) including two figures in almond-shaped panels on grisaille. Gordon Plumb )〕
Holland's stained glass reflects the influence of the Cambridge Camden Society and the Gothic Revival work of Thomas Willement. Willement revived in the early 19th century, the method used at York Minster to build the Great East Window in 1400 wherein coloured pieces are leaded and the lead then becomes part of the design, appearing as black lines in the window.〔(Victoria and Albert Museum: Britain's Most Fragile Treasure )〕
==Studio and business==
Holland founded his firm in Warwick at 3 Priory Rd at the intersection with St John's Road, as "Holland , William and Son, St John's , Warwick . Designers and Producers. Stained glass of the twelfth century representing scriptural events." Other 19th century sources quote his work as Elizabethan style. Again as a "stained glass and decorative painting establishment, where every description of design for monumental and baronial windows, enamelled and encaustic painting, gilding, imitations of wood" was executed.〔(British History Online County History : Stephens, W.B. A History of the County of Warwick: Volume 8: The City of Coventry and Borough of Warwick, 1969 )〕 At his studio, Holland also trained family members and other well known makers of stained glass, such as Clement Heaton〔(Examples by Clement Heaton of the stained glass at St. Mary's Church, Osterley, Middlesex )〕 In 1855 Heaton joined James Butler to start his own company in London. The original buildings still stand, a white office on a corner is still attached to a long brick building which was Holland's workshop.
