ABSTRACT

Between the middle of the thirteenth and the late fifteenth centuries there is little evidence in either documentary sources or in surviving windows to suggest that the presence of foreign glass-painters in England was any more than occasional. In passing it may be noted that traces of traffic in the reverse direction are equally lacking, apart from a late fifteenth-century window by an English glazier in the parish church of Caudebec-en-Caux in Normandy, which was an English possession at the time; the glass was given by an English soldier named Fulkes Eyton and it was almost certainly imported. 1
