Judith Schaechter (born 1961, Gainesville, Florida) is a Philadelphia-based artist known for her work in the medium of stained glass.^[1] Her pieces often use symbolism from stained glass and Gothic traditions, but the distorted faces and figures in her work recall a 20th century German Expressionist painting style^[2] and her subject matter is secular.^[3] Shaechter's work often involves images that might be considered disturbing such as death, disease, or violence.^[4] Early Schaechter pieces, for example, such as King of Maggots and Vide Futentes make use of memento mori, symbols of death found in church architecture during medieval times.^[4]
