'The stained glass window was made in the same proportionsas the original design, but substituting a deep purple hue for the blackbackground, since black glass does not admit any light and might defeat thewhole purpose. The stained glass window was photographed outside against awinter sun (actually in the back garden of a house belonging to one of PinkFloyd) highlighting the texture and imperfections of the glass itself. All veryradiant we thought, especially in the flesh.' - Storm Thorgerson in TAKEN BY STORM
