Sir John Ninian Comper (10 June 1864 – 22 December 1960) was a Scottish architect; one of the last of the great Gothic Revival architects. His work almost entirely focussed on the design, restoration and embellishment of churches, and the design of ecclesiastical furnishings, stained glass and vestments. He is celebrated for his use of colour, iconography and emphasis on churches as a setting for liturgy. In his later works, he developed the subtle integration of Classical and Gothic styles, an approach he described as 'unity by inclusion'.

  • Sir John Ninian Comper (10 juin 1864 - 22 décembre 1960), ou plus simplement Ninian Comper, est un architecte et un artiste d'origine écossaise. Célèbre pour ses églises, le mobilier et la décoration qu’il conçoit pour elles, il est l'un des derniers grands architectes néogothiques. Il est renommé pour ses vitraux, son utilisation de la couleur et l'intégration subtile d'éléments classiques, gothiques et byzantins dans ses œuvres qu'il décrit comme relevant de « l'unité par inclusion ».
