This work re-creates the light measured one morning from the North Rose Window at the Cathedral at Saint-Denis in Paris, France, the earliest surviving Gothic building. The cathedral’s twelfth century reconstruction in the Gothic style was overseen by Abbot Suger, who believed in the power of stained glass to transform natural light, lux, into sacred light, or lumen.
