Suggestion for mausoleum window for Mr. John W. Brennan, Hudson, New York
Tiffany Studios produced numerous windows with figural scenes from the Old and New Testaments. This small rendering depicts Christ, his right hand pointing toward the sky, his left hand pointing toward himself, above the inscription, "I am the Resurrection and the Life." The resurrected Christ is an appropriate subject for a memorial window, in this case for the mausoleum of Mr. John W. Brennan of Hudson, New York.
