IMG_3724web.jpg
This beautiful window "The Flight of Souls" is the focal point in the interior of the Wade Memorial Chapel located in Lakeview Cemetery, Cleveland, Ohio.

Info from their website:
Dedicated in 1901, Wade Memorial Chapel was built in honor of Jeptha Wade, founder of The Western Union Telegraph Company, by his grandson.
The exterior was designed by W. Dominick Benes and Benjamin S. Hubbell. The interior was designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany.

The window is done in the Favrile technique developed by Tiffany,
giving the glass an opalescence and iridescent quality by exposing it to chemicals and fumes
of molten metals during the glass-blowing process.
