The New Window in Sanders Theatre.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The stained-glass window, designed by John La Farge in memory of former President G. C. Felton, has recently been put in place in Sanders Theatre. It is set in the middle window opposite the stage, where its simplicity and the strength of its lines and color-masses command attention from all parts of the theatre. The subject is a figure of Minerva decorating a column with a memorial fillet of purple and gold.

Minerva's role is the color of wine less with strong high lights almost white on the back and on certain main folds. Her sandals are golden, as is all that can be seen of the aegis which she wears on her breast. The platform on which the figure stands is opalescent white, while the column has a golden tone, shot with green. In size, the window is seven feet seven inches high and five feet wide. On the front of the platform is the simple statement, "In memory of G. C. Felton."
