In this window, commissioned for the Howell Hinds house around 1900, thousands of richly coloured glass pieces have been arranged and layered to paint an idyllic three-dimensional scene that would have warmly glowed in the afternoon sunlight. Located at 2200 Overlook Road in Cleveland, Ohio, the house was demolished in 1930 in a similar fate as other nearby estates. Photographs show the placement of the window in the drawing-room next to the fireplace as well as the opulent interiors Louis Comfort Tiffany designed for the library and dining room.
The window was made by Tiffany Glass & Decorating Company, New York.
