The Earley family were
involved with the decorative arts in some form
from the 1840's, being closely associated with A.W.N.
Pugin and
John Hardman of Hardman &
Co. Birmingham. The Earley Ecclesiastical
Studios were in existence from 1864 to 1975, providing a high
standard
of ecclesiastical art during the Gothic revival of the 1800s and the
building of Catholic Churches which flourished in the first half of
the 20th century.
At this time, the Earley studios were heavy influenced
by the work of
Irish Arts & Crafts artist Harry Clarke, using
"Antique streaky" glass in rich deep colours,
thick black paint
lines, acid etching
and stylised,
often elongated, figures with sharp features.
These windows were removed from the chapel of St Winifred's Nursing
Home, Cardiff, Wales, prior to demolition.
