Face of Christ
This Portrait of Christ is an example of Classical Glass
Painting Technique. It was executed by Ani Jamyang Donma for Robert McCausland
Ltd. in 1996 for a window depicting ‘The Garden of Gethsemene. The
pigments used in this technique are painstakingly applied with a needle
and then kiln-fired to be made permanent. There is evidence of this type
of work lasting 500 years or more. The detail that can be achieved with
this technique is remarkable and timeless. Ani Jamyang Donma of Yulokod
Studios apprenticed for seven years to learn this technique, it is not
available at art schools or craft courses. One of the goals of Yulokod
Studios is to take these precious and rare techniques and reintroduce
them into the 20th century by applying them to contemporary subjects and
artistically relevant locations. With this technique of glass painting
one is liberated from having to use the lead line to delineate ones design
concepts, it also allows for exact renditions of a photographic quality
for instance in the case of portraiture.
