Louis Leloup (17 January 1929 – 12 August 2025) was a Belgian stained-glass artist.[1]

Leloup was a teacher at the École des Cristalleries du Val Saint-Lambert from 1958 to 1971 and notably presented the stained-glass window Madone de la Lumière to Pope John Paul II in 2003.[2]

Leloup died on 12 August 2025, at the age of 96.[3]

The glass collector Wolfgang Kermer was one of the first to become aware of Louis Leloup, to visit him in his studio, which was still located in a garage in Seraing, and to acquire one of his first studio glass objects (today in the Wolfgang Kermer Collection, Frauenau Glass Museum).
