SECOND STAIR LANDING WINDOW, PRAYING ANGEL

This window is a circular single panel, 35” in diameter.  It depicts the bust of an angel, her hands folded before her, looking upward.  The model was Mary Whitney, John La Farge’s long-time mistress and one of his favorite models until 1892, when she left New York.
