THE RESTORATION OF THE CHRIST PREACHING WINDOW
Julie Sloan
November 1, 2011  7:00 pm, Trinity Church, Copley Square 

John La Farge's Christ Preaching (1883) --newly returned to the church after a multi-year restoration--is Trinity Church's crowning glory and one of the artist's most significant windows. Julie Sloan, consultant to the restoration, will explore the window's history, design, and restoration and La Farge's relationship to Trinity Church.
