CALIFORNIA---Twelfth-century stained-glass windows from Canterbury Cathedral have been shipped to the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles for a show that opens next Friday. They are on loan while the cathedral shell is undergoing repairs. Instead of being perched high, as they were in Canterbury, the windows will hang at eye level at the Getty and, next year, at the Cloisters in New York. [link]
