By Jean-Baptiste Capronnier (1814-1891).
 
Jean-Baptiste Capronnier was born in Brussels in 1814. He took over his father's glass design and manufacturing business around 1840 and acquired an international reputation. He used intense acid colours and a highly pictorial style, using large pieces of glass with most detail added in enamel. He carried out windows for various churches in Brussels, Bruges, Amsterdam and elsewhere, and his work was commissioned also for France and Italy. His reputation in England was highest in the 1860s and 1870s. At the Paris Exhibition of 1855 he won the only medal given for glass painting. He died in Brussels in 1891.
