Abstract

The stained glass windows in Chile have a hundred years of history, beginning in the 1870s and becoming less frequent from the 1970s onwards. The values that this corpus reflects the multiple dimensions of this art: carrier of history, symbols and the transmission of knowledge, among the main ones. The corpus is an important testimony to the cultural transfer that happened in a world in the middle of a period of expansion and movement. This brief analysis is based on the relationships between the different actors involved in this exchange, such as architects, principals, artists and the recipients of the works, including the local market to which this art gave rise.
