    About 15" x 10". I guess some kind of reproduction as there is the print text that reads Art Institute of Chicago? Probably sold at their gift shop?

    Been there a few times but I don't recall what was in the store. :(

    There are prints of the stained glasses but I can't find any other glass panels for sale. I doubt it is an actual Chagall piece. The real panels are probably much bigger.

    Yes they are. MUCH bigger though I am not sure they aren't pieced together.

    The Art Institute has Chagall's "America Windows", which date to 1977. This is probably a detail from those. An art print souvenir from the museum.

    So, they took a picture of the original window and printed it on the glass?

    Sure. Why not? It would be like a decal.

    I wish I had better pics to show, it just does not look like decal but like actual stained glass. I am not familiar with the techniques used to reproduce stained glass.

    Some kind of photographic transparency adhered to glass. I had one of a Frank Lloyd Wright window at one point.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Looking at "America Windows" in person is enjoyable. Many details to see, and the blue color has a calming, serene effect.
