We hope you are having a safe and happy Independence Day weekend!
Did you know that the signing of the Declaration of Independence has been memorialized in multiple stained glass windows throughout the US? Yes, indeed – it has! Below are three designs from our studio library that show this monumental moment for our nation.
Medallion detail from Presbyterianism in America window, East Liberty Presbyterian Church, Pittsburgh, PA, c. 1932
Design for The First General Assembly featuring the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Abington Presbyterian Church, Abington, PA, 1959. Can you spot the Liberty Bell?
A more modern take on the subject: photo detail from the History of Christianity in America window, National Shrine of Our Lady of Czestochowa, Doylestown, PA, 1967
