About this postcard

A color photograph of a three-panel stained glass window, the tall central light framing an urn of flowers beneath an arched canopy, flanked by two side lights repeating a symmetrical design of stylized blossoms, scrolling foliage and a blue medallion. The glass is leaded in a rich palette of red, blue, green, gold and purple against clear quarries, with a row of roundels along the top and bottom edges. No caption identifies the building, so the window's location cannot be determined from the card.
