In 1972 an exhibition was held at the purpose built MURPHY/DEVITT/STUDIOS in Blackrock, Co. Dublin. (The studio featured a large clear glass window of about ten metres high by seven metres wide. A wire frame covered the window allowing stained glass windows to be mocked-up in the studio to gauge their effect in advance of when they would be installed on site.) Below are some photographs taken of the preparations for the exhibition : we hope to track down some images of the event itself.
