 The stories told in the glass were usually episodes from the Bible, but they also sometimes illustrated the professions of the guilds which had funded the windows, such as the drapers, stonemasons or the barrel-makers.Much of the stained glass in Gothic churches today dates from later restorations, but a few, notably Chartres Cathedral and Bourges Cathedral, still have many of their original windows.The exteriors and interiors of Gothic churches, were lavishly ornamented with sculpture and decoration on religious themes, designed for the great majority of parishioners who could not read.
