When in New York City ... 1. Go to the Metropolitan Museum. 2. You can find one of the most fabulous stained glass windows in the world there.
NO picture can do it justice - you really have to be within a foot of it to absorb the intricate interplay of colors in the leaves, the trunk of the tree, the shimmering water ...
If you like GLASS - this is like a trip to Mecca .
