Design for Dean Memorial Window, "The Virtuous Woman," First Presbyterian Church of Rutherford, New Jersey

  • Data di creazione1895
  • Dimensioni36.0 x 56.0 cm
In contrast to highly finished watercolor designs, which were readily translated into cartoons, this sketch was almost certainly used as a preliminary draft. The trefoil-topped windows depict scenes from Proverbs 31:10–31, a passage celebrating the ideal woman as a virtuous and industrious mother who is honored by her family. In the left window, the bountiful grape harvest symbolizes the exemplary woman as resourceful and entrepreneurial. The middle scene represents a mother’s charity; she doles out bread to a hungry child as the spinning wheel and lamp in the background evoke her industriousness. In the window at right stand her adoring husband and children.
