Stained Glass Lunette from the Cornelius Vanderbilt II House, New York
Semicircular stained glass window with a thin white outline. The window has a cream-colored background. The top section features a repeating pattern of small, rounded, white shapes along the curved edge in shades of yellow, blue, and green. Below this pattern, a central design showcases a brown urn with a green base and neck on a yellow stem; the urn has a blue and orange design on its body. The urn is flanked by two identical blue and orange masks suspended from the top by chains. The masks feature blue and orange rays extending from their heads. Two brown birds with blue and black wings are perched on either side, each holding a pink and blue rope. The lower section depicts green scrolling vines with pink tips, supporting two clusters of flowers on the left and right. The outer edge of the semicircle features small yellow dots on a blue background. The overall design is set against a black background.
