Three designs for studio doors, by W.J. Neatby (1860-1910). These are on pp. 3-5 of Neatby's booklet of designs for prospective clients, The 1901 Book. The booklet itself measures 4 1/2" x 6".

Closer view of the peacock pane.

Domestic stained glass was very popular, but it is interesting to see Neatby appealing particularly to the artistic community. One upper pane (left) features a rural landscape, the next a seascape with a boat under sail (middle) and one (right, and shown above as well) with the fashionable peacock design that he used elsewhere. — Jacqueline Banerjee
