Art Nouveau Stained Glass in a Lakeside Hotel




Here are the stained glass windows that ascend the wall behind the main staircase in the Grand Hotel Suisse in Montreaux. They were quite stunning in early morning light. We climbed the marble staircase to admire each window.






I have tried to research the artist , E. Diekmann of Lausanne, but so far I have found no information on the internet.

Oh, those are absolutely beautiful! I love stained glass. Having read your previous post, I'm very tempted to follow in your footsteps (on the holiday, I mean, rather than becoming a stalker...) and now even more so. Must speak to the husband... .

Beautiful colours, I love it when the light throws the jewel-like patterns onto the floor or wall.

I love stain glass, these windows are so beautiful what a shame you couldn't find any information about this talented artist.
