Technical Data
Glass
The windows are made of plate glass with a slightly pink tint.
Design
The subject matter of each of the windows was suggested by the artist in consultation with the pastor and then reviewed and approved by a special committee of Salem’s members.
Etched Windows
Were made by artists employed by Rambusch Inc., in New York.
Production
The windows were produced by a sand blast etching method.
Typography
The irregular form of typography and type faces were selected to assure the datelessness of the windows.
Figures
The figures themselves are depicted in symbolic clothing to avoid identity with any specific era or period of time.
Quotations
All biblical quotations are from the Revised Standard Version of the Holy Bible.
