This preliminary design drawing belongs to the windows made for Temple Emanu-El, the Fifth Avenue synagogue in New York that has long been one of the largest Reform congregations in the United States. Designs like this one came early in the process, before any glass was cut, and they show how a designer balanced figures, ornament, and light before committing to a full-scale cartoon for the glaziers. Studying the composition and color notes on a sheet like this reveals the choices that shaped how light would enter and color the sanctuary.
