Light Instruments: Stained Glass on the Drum

Light is a material. The drum’s windows make it sing.

Notes

• Color and mood variations by time of day.
• How glass interacts with fresco and marble.
• Quiet moments near the crossing.

Where to Stand

• Near the crossing for layered light.
• Along the nave for color gradients.
• Side chapels for quiet observation.

Bottom line: The dome’s drum teaches you to see time in color.
