Medicine Hat glass designer tied to Van Horne and Smithsonian
Edward Colonna, an American designer, created two leaded glass windows for Medicine Hat Hospital in 1893 after influence from CPR official John Niblock. His work spans railway interiors, jewelry, and French Art Nouveau pieces, with the three pane window in Medicine Hat confirmed as Colonna’s, later exhibited at the Smithsonian.
