Description

Caption on the verso reads "Cherubim window, created by Tiffany Studios of New York for St. Anne's Church in Lowell, MA. This lunette, commissioned in 1908 by Dr. A. St John Chambre as a tribute to his deceased daughters, was designed after a famous painting of the same title by Sir Joshua Reynolds. Severely damaged in the late 1980s, the window was completely restored by the Lyn Hovey Studio, Inc. in 1994."
