As light shines through the windo ws, one feels drawn into the dimension of each piece, whether it is the hand-molded glass velvet folds of St. Cecilia's robe or the iron strings of King David's harp. Cast and chunk glass jewels add further ornamental elements and detail to the windows. Two of the Tiffany windows were donated by Josephine Louise Newcomb in memory of her husband, and her mother, Mary Sophia LeMonnier. The third window was donated by Mr. Newcomb's family to memorialize his nephew and namesake, Warren N ewcomb Smith. A fourth window in the lobby, partially crafted by Tiffany, contains an art nouveau depiction of the fountain and administration building on the Washington Avenue Newcomb Campus.
