Ezekiel. Actually, it's Ezekiel's toes, in a close-up from one of the Chagall windows in the Union Church of Pocantico Hills.

| Marc Chagall's Ezekiel window, from the Union Church of Pocantico Hills |
Despite having lived near this church for the past 8 years, and in the same metropolitan area for my entire life, I'd never been in it before last month. It's extraordinary, with a rose window by Henri Matisse, and nine stained glass windows by Marc Chagall.
Because you can get right up close to most of the windows, you can really see the paint and the lead work and the etching in the glass. It's magnificent.

oh, wow. unassuming country church, indeed....
Wow, gorgeous! I had no idea that was there. Never visited in all my years in the NYC metro area either.
I love stained glass windows, especially older ones that make sunlight go wavy.
Wow. I didn't know that.
Had no idea Marc Chagall did stained glass windows...
