A Tour of Our Windows
The stained glass of St. Mary's is an impressive collection of work by major American Art Glass Studios, including Louis Comfort Tiffany, John La Farge, and Lamb Studios. A variety of art glass making techniques are exemplified in the works, including fine portrait painting on glass. The collection reflects the height of the craft of stained glass and leaded glass in America. We invite you to tour this gallery of our windows online or in person (the first windows below can be found in the vestibule, and then on your right in counter-clockwise order as you enter the church).
