This stained glass window was halfway up the stairs of the old hotel that we stayed at recently. The hotel was built in the 1860's, I think: http://www.blackballhilton.co.nz and has a chequered history Blackball village s 20 minutes away from Greymouth on the west coast of NZ. The latter cheeky owners first re -named it 'The Blackball Hilton" but were sued by the huge Hilton chain! So it is now amusingly known as "Formerly the Blackball Hilton!
Beautiful color and composition. I love the story of the Blackball Hilton and how the owners got even in a way by altering the name slightly. Those big corporations are ridiculously protective.
