Literature:
Mrazek, Leopold Forstner, p. 69. Leopold Forstner’s glass windows were executed by the Viennese company Carl Geylings Erben and, just like his sketches for mosaics, were also designed for the Dr-Karl-Lueger-Gedächtniskirche at the Central Cemetery. Besides Otto Wagner’s Kirche Am Steinhof, this construction, based on plans by Max Hegele, was the most important building of the Viennese Jugendstil.
