Water Lilies
Jun. 5th, 2007 02:52 pm
A few months ago we bought a piece of stained glass to cover a window that was letting in too much sunlight in the mornings and waking us up. It turns out this is an imitation of an imitation of Monet. Tiffany created a stained glass window called "Monsieur Monet's Water Lilies" and I actually have a greeting card printed with a detail from that window. The original was wonderful, of course, each lily handpainted. I haven't been able to find an image of the Tiffany window on the Web, though there are a number of other imitations for sale (none quite as nice as ours).I love this window - it makes the whole room glow with an underwater green light. Very calming, and a lovely way to start the day.
