Summary

Description
English: A work of renowned stained glass artist Louis Comfort Tiffany, this stained glass window once illuminated the music room of Rochroane Castle - the majestic residence of cotton and oil magnate Melchior S. Beltzhoover in the Hudson Valley of New York - with a pastoral landscape scene rendered in rich color and lush detail. A combination of lead lines and textural differences gives the impression of waves in water, and produces the illusion of distance in the image of the rolling hills in the background. This and many of the other decorative features of the interior had thankfully already been removed and put into storage by the time the old mansion was destroyed by fire in 1977. As seen in the "35 Centuries of Glass" gallery during a March 2022 visit to the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York.
