Exterior View of “Mother of Perpetual Help” Faceted Glass Window, Mary, Mother of Priests Chapel

Description

A full vertical exterior photograph documenting the outer face of the "Mother of Perpetual Help" "dalle de verre" (faceted glass) window set within the chapel’s exterior wall.

The image features:

* Exterior Matrix & Reversed Inscription: Viewed from the exterior under natural daylight, the faceted glass slabs appear as dark, muted tesserae set within the light-toned mortar matrix. The glass-inlaid Marian monogram or text at the bottom appears reversed and mirrored when viewed from the outside.

* Outer Iconographic Silhouette: Dark structural outlines clearly define the window's central passion and Marian symbols, including the lower heart and vessel motif, central hands holding a patriarchal or double-barred cross extending upward, and the celestial crown at the apex.

* Structural Wall Framing: The three-section panel assembly is recessed into a smooth, light-gray stucco facade, supported by a clean, sloped stone sill designed to shed water away from the masonry opening.

* Archival Preservation Record: This photo provides essential documentation of the exterior mortar matrix integrity, perimeter seals, and physical weathering of the window prior to dismantling.
