Stained glass

I just deleted your addition to a gallery in that article, and I am dropping you a note to say why.

This is not about the importance of the artist as an individual. It is about the relevance of that particular picture within the context of that Gallery. If you take another look at the gallery and read the caption to the pictures, then it becomes clear that each picture has been selected, not for the artist as an individual, but because the image itself represents a major art movement or technical innovation that affected 20th century stained glass. The pictures are labelled with names like De Stijl, Expressionism, Post Modernism etc.

In each case, images have been selected that show the glass with great clarity. None of the picture in that gallery are a broad interior view.

Using one of your pictures in a textbook

I would like to include your picture of the Cologne diatreton (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Colognediatret.jpg) in a textbook. It would show at about 5 cm high and be credited in the legend immediately below. I wanted to confirm that is OK with you, and ask if you would like it to be credited to a real name/location/URL/whatever. I can also be contacted at thechabon a.a.t.t. hotmail d.d.o.t.t. com.
