In the center, it depicts Science (personified by Devotion, Labor, Truth, Research and Intuition) and Religion (personified by Purity, Faith, Hope, Reverence and Inspiration) in harmony, presided over by the central personification of "Light·Love·Life". On the left is Art, attended by Form, Color and Imagination. On the right Music, with Rhythm, Melody, Harmony, Verse, and Voice.

[edit] Licensing

Note on licensing: the window design itself is public domain because the creator died over 70 years ago. The images are tagged as PD-self because, as a stained glass window that varies considerably in appearance based on complex lighting conditions (and has elements of 3-dimensionality), photographs likely create a new copyright (by me, Sage Ross, in this case) which also needs to be released or licensed.


Public domain I, the copyright holder of this work, hereby release it into the public domain. This applies worldwide.

In case this is not legally possible:
I grant anyone the right to use this work for any purpose, without any conditions, unless such conditions are required by law.
