The Glass Rainbow Trust

The Glass Rainbow Trust has been set up as a Jersey Registered Charity (subject to Royal Court approval) to celebrate the life and work of Henry Thomas Bosdet, a Jerseyman born in 1856, and to encourage learning about Bosdet and the art of stained glass.  Bosdet lived and worked in London, for many years he was Professor of Life Drawing at the Royal Academy of Art.  He is best known in Jersey as a master craftsman in stained glass and many of the Island's churches and its principal manor house boast Bosdet windows which are breathtaking in their design and execution.


The Jersey Museum holds an impressive collection of Bosdet drawings and some cartoons which are designs for some of the stained glass windows in churches.
