| 12455 | Creation - Tiffany Stained Glass Window depicting Great Head, Mount Desert, Maine |
|
|
| In 1922 Louisa Pierpont (Morgan) Satterlee commissioned a stained glass window depicting Great Head, Mount Desert Island, Maine from Louis Comfort Tiffany. She gave it to the Church of the Holy Innocents, Highland Falls, New York, in memory of her father, J.P. Morgan. "The Louis Comfort Tiffany-signed window, entitled "Creation," was installed in the church's chancel in 1922. It was the gift of Louisa in memory of her father. It states the opening to the Benedicite hymn of praise: "O all ye works of the Lord, bless ye the Lord: praise him and magnify him forever." It depicts massive Great Head and the sun rising above the ocean's horizon." – “The Satterlee Window” by Don Lenahan, Memorials of Acadia National Park site, 04/15/2013, Accessed online 09/25/15; http://acadiamemorials.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-satterlee-window-during-my-research.html The church, in which her father had been an active member, is near Cragston, the Morgan estate on the banks of the Hudson River, just south of West Point. Holy Innocents is on Church Street a few doors north of Cozzens Avenue, about a block west of the U.S. Military Academy Visitors Center. The Main entrance is at 401 Main Street practically across from the Visitors Center. |

| 13292 | Lost Bar Harbor |
|
|
|
| From the 1880s to the end of World War I, the fashionable resort of Bar Harbor attracted thousands of summer visitors with the money and leisure to pursue "the simple life on a grand scale," as A. Atwater Kent put it. They came to rusticate, dance, sail, picnic, flirt--and they did it all with style. Many relaxed at Bar Harbor's lavish hotels, while others built even more lavish and fanciful "cottages" for their own summer retreats. That dazzling era is just a memory now. The Depression and World War II undermined the summer colony, and the Great Fire of 1947 dealt the final blow. Those summer homes and hotels that survived the blaze generally succumbed to changing times, and only a handful stand today. Eighty-six vanished summer palaces are pictured in Lost Bar Harbor. Many never before published photographs from the Bar Harbor Historical Society are supplemented by lively text describing the estates and their colorful inhabitants. It is the most comprehensive collection of early Bar Harbor photographs ever assembled, providing an unparalleled glimpse of one of the world's great resort communities. |
