This is a neat article, but I feel I should point out that
they are misusing the term "mosaics". The article is really
about the stained glass windows of Chartres Cathedral. It's
a similar art form, but not the same as medieval mosaics,
which were applied to walls, ceilings and floors (not
windows) - and mostly in Italy, not France.
