Among the many artists who helped to enrich the churches of France in the twentieth century with stained glass, François Décorchemont is the least known.
However, his work in the field of stained glass is considerable and very original.
He invented a new material, crystal paste, and he is famous for the many decorative items he made with this material in the first half of his life.
But it remains almost completely ignored for what has been the great work of its existence after fifty years: the religious stained glass window.
This book aims to reveal to the public what was the life of this great creator, and the richness of his glazed work, both from an aesthetic and religious point of view.
