| Description |
Throughout history, man has sought to preserve
those things which are precious to him, to pass
them on to future generations. While great stone
monuments and mighty empires might crumble,
memory and faith often endure and gain beauty,
as this fragile glass has. Its simple beauty seems
to express an eternal optimism about surviving
against the odds.
