A citation to Community of Christ's own self-guided Independence Temple Tour page, describing the stained glass window at the Temple's west entrance, read directly. Its strength is that Community of Christ is the denomination that commissioned the window, owns the building that displays it, and speaks in this text as the work's own custodian, naming its artist, fabricator, materials and intended meaning. Its limit is that it is devotional and institutional web content rather than independent art criticism or scholarship.
