| 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.
