Stained glass is best described as what?

• A. Stained glass
• B. Night Café
• C. Fayum Portraits
• D. Pantheon

Answer: (A)

Stained glass is a medium and technique, using pieces of colored glass joined by lead came to form windows or decorative panels. It creates imagery through light and color filtering, often enhancing architectural spaces with luminous, saturated tones. The other options point to different types of art or architecture—Night Café is an oil painting, Fayum Portraits are ancient painted portraits, and Pantheon is a building. None of those describe the medium and method of stained glass, so describing stained glass itself as the category makes the best sense.
