This looks like a stained-glass window design drawn on paper. It’s divided into tall, pointed sections with colorful scenes inside. Some panels show people standing or kneeling, while others have buildings or animals. The colors are faded but still bright—blues, reds, and greens stand out against the yellowed background. The window seems to tell a story, maybe about religious or historical events. Notice how the top sections look like city skylines, while the bottom ones show people in simple, flowing robes. Look up John La Farge to see how his work blended art and faith.
