14th century glass in the south aisle of York Minster. Most of the nave aisle windows retain their original 14th century glazing, with each window following a similar layout with six main narrative panels within canopies. Much of the glass however is seriously patched and confused by damage and successive repairs over the centuries.
York Minster is England's largest medieval cathedral and almost impossible to do justice to. It has an awesome presence that cannot fail to impress.
Uniquely the cathedral was spared the ravages of the Civil War that decimated the medieval art of most English cathedrals and churches, and it thus possesses the largest collection of medieval glass in Britain throughout most of it's vast windows.

My collection of 'graphic novels' or as I prefer, just comic books, because that's essentially what those 'novels' usually are. Comic books with binding.
Two big expensive collections of the very first Spider-Man comics, JTHM: Directors Cut (AKA: includes shitty sketches traded for 'meanwhiles' considered by many to be the best part of the comic), two volumes of that lovely series The Walking Dead, and the adult book about a couple guys that dress as pirates from The Devils' Panties.

Henry Clay and Adelaide Childs Frick House. 1 East 70th Street, Upper East Side, Manhattan, New York City, New York, United States
Set in spacious grounds and surrounded by retaining walls, this great mansion presents a striking picture of imposing grandeur and architectural distinction on Fifth Avenue, where it occupies the entire blockfront between 70th and 71st Streets.
Built as the residence of Henry Clay Frick, it has been a museum since 1935- The entrance to The Frick Collection is at No. 1 East 70th Street. Adjoining the mansion to the east and connected to it at basement level, is the newer Frick Art Reference Library Building at No. 10 East 71st Street.
When Mr. Frick purchased this site for his mansion in 1911, it was then occupied by the Lenox Library which, at that time, was about to unite its holdings with those of the Astor and Tilden Libraries in the newly completed New York Public Library at 42nd Street and Fifth Avenue. It is worthy of note that Mr. Frick selected the firm of Carrere & Hastings, the architects of the New York Public Library, to design his mansion.
His residence was planned from the beginning to serve as a future museum. The famed coke and steel magnate had gradually built up an outstanding art collection which he intended to open to the public in the mansion after his wife's death. After the death of Mr. Frick and his wife in 1931, the Board of Directors of his collection, which had been incorporated in 1920, immediately advanced plans for alterations and additions to the mansion and for the construction of a research library building.
The entire complex was opened to the public on December 16, 1935.
The mansion takes full advantage of the magnificent site, facing Central Park. Separating it from Fifth Avenue, and slightly above it, is a wide lawn and garden which create a feeling of spaciousness. Making the transition to the house, a raised terrace is approached from the lawn by a broad flight of steps flanked by monumental urns.
These steps lead up to the central and most prominent feature of the Fifth Avenue facade: a shallow projecting bay is given dramatic emphasis by four Ionic pilasters which enframe the three arched windows of the first story and the windows above it. The main body of the mansion is three stories high, including a classical attic story.
The top of a wide bandcourse, surmounting the rusticated first floor, serves as a sill for the second story windows and is the dominant unifying feature of the building, linking the north and south wings to the main body of the mansion. The attic story is set back behind a handsome parapet with balusters in front of each window.
Full-length, square-headed windows at the first floor, at either side of the central feature, are given emphasis by panels above, with delicate bas-relief carvings.
The lawn is framed at the north by a charming loggia which extends along the south side of the gallery wing and terminates in a pavilion at the Fifth Avenue corner. This long one-story wing, set above a rusticated base, encloses the property on the 71st Street side and extends eastward 275 feet from Fifth Avenue. A shorter two-story wing on 70th Street overlooks the garden facing Fifth Avenue and runs eastward until it meets the small forecourt to the main entrance. It continues the theme of the rusticated first floor and has two handsome pedimented windows at the Fifth Avenue end.
The French Louis XVI character of the mansion, established by Carrere & Hastings, was faithfully maintained by John Russell Pope when he altered it in 1931-35 after Mr. Frick's death. The handsome doorway with arched pediment at the main entrance on East 70th Street was originally a carriage driveway which led through to East 71st Street, passing through an open courtyard.
In order to provide a larger entrance hall with coat rooms and additional space for The Frick Collection, Pope made provision for extra facilities and transformed the open courtyard into an enclosed atrium with arched glass skylight supported on coupled columns. He also extended the north wing to provide additional space: the Oval Room, the East Gallery and Lecture Room. The site of the East Gallery had previously been occupied by a separate building housing Mr. Frick's two-story Art Reference Library which he had opened to the art world as early as 1924.
When further expansion was decided upon, the adjacent property to the east, No. 10 East 71st Street, was purchased and Pope was commissioned to design a new six-story library building, founded by Miss Helen C. Frick in memory of her father.
The Art Reference Library Building, completed in 1935, is an impressive structure, approached through a monumental arch supported on paired Ionic columns which rest on a low base of the same height as that of the north wing of The Frick Collection. The entablature from which the arch springs is also approximately the same height as that of the adjoining wing. Above the central arch there are four stories behind a plain limestone wall, pierced only by three monumental pedimented windows with balusters below them.
A deep entablature, with an elaborately decorated frieze and projecting roof cornice, crowns the blank wall above the windows which contains the library stacks.
