VEERE, ZEELAND—THE “SCOTCH HOUSE”
WOODEN WINDOW-FRAME, WITH IRON FITTINGS AND LEAD GLAZING, FROM DORDRECHT, SOUTH HOLLAND
WINDOW SHUTTER FROM VELSEN
Windows were first glazed with leaded lights. Small squares of glass, as at Dordrecht (page [98]), or diamond panes were used. But during the seventeenth century the employment of wooden bars became universal and leadwork went out of fashion. The openings were divided centrally by transoms, the lower windows receding inwards considerably more than the upper ones.
