Dublin’s Stained Glass

A guide to the finest twentieth-century windows

David Caron

“This is a book which will give delight as well as insight to those who enjoy nothing more than exploring our great tradition of stained glass, largely created since the beginning of the 20th century. David Caron has devoted his career to the diverse trends of Irish stained glass [...] This book aims to provide the ordinary “church crawler” with a guide to the best examples of stained glass work to be seen in the greater Dublin region […] this is a book for those weekend excursions that some families (not devoted to sport) still make to interesting and inspiring places.” Peter Costello, the Irish Catholic, September 2025.

“Friends, take note – this is an ideal Christmas present! If it has never occurred to you to take a drive, a walk or a cycle through any part of Dublin, dropping into churches along the way, this book will convince you that it’s the ideal way to spend a day, surrounded by history and beauty.” Finola Finlay, Roaringwater Journal, September 2025.

“This sumptuous, truly elegant book takes the reader on a journey of the great stained glass windows of [Dublin in the 20th century], with lots of lavish illustrations, both of the works themselves complete, and of details within them. It’s a book to make any art lover gasp in wonder.” Meath Chronicle, September 2025.
