Stained glass

Over the Summer I had taken several pictures for this on-going project, Finding France. It was about the last day or so of my Upward Bound when the tutor mentor came to have the students give me evaluations. As I was sitting outside class waiting for the process to be over, I noticed some lovely stained glass that I had not noticed before.

This particular building, Founders Hall, had undergone major renovations from when I was originally a student there, and I don't think I had noticed it before. But, I did that day and took a picture. I think the glass may have been "a keeper" from the renovations and it was reincorporated into the new architecture. It's at the top of the main stair-well when you enter the building from the front.

Distinctly in the middle of the piece is a fleur-de-lis.
