Stained glass window, Crypta Guell, Colonia Guell, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain

Stained glass window of a cross with infilled floral design resembling butterflies' wings, in the Crypta Guell, built 1898-1915, an unfinished church by Catalan Modernist architect Antoni Gaudi, 1852-1926, in the Colonia Guell, a workers' colony set up by Eusebi Guell in Santa Coloma de Cervello, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. The church is an organic hyperbolic paraboloid shape, with leaning pillars and catenary arches supporting the structure. The colony was begun in 1890 on Guell's estate Can Soler de la Torre, with a hospital, boardinghouse, schools, shops, theatres, chapel, factories and workers' housing. Gaudi was in charge of the project, collaborating with Francesc Berenguer, Joan Rubio and Josep Canaleta. Gaudi's crypt is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
