Museum Acquires Window

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A new acquisition by the Germanic Museum is a set of stained glass windows in the Gothic Chapel by Hans Oster of New York City.

These windows are exact copies of windows in certain Austrian churches and monasteries near Vienna. The originals are fourteenth and fifteenth century pieces, being remarkable chiefly for the richness and brightness of the color of the glass.

The figures represented are sibyls, emperors, and other figures; when the one remaining window to be set up is installed in about two weeks the set will be complete.
