This lovely panel was made in 1901 for a Catholic Church in Brooklyn. The church image you see below was taken in the 1940s.
Unfortunately, the structure fell into disrepair and was eventually taken down. My patron Paul Rivera, who grew up going to this church, had the opportunity to acquire one of the panels from the facade of this lovely Catholic Church, and as you can see, it was in terrible condition. Many missing sections and, fortunately, I happened to have a few sheets of Kokomo hammered textured glass from the same time period this panel was created.
We added a mahogany frame and now it hangs in a private home today completely restored and looking so beautiful.
