| Title | Lunch Encounter |
| Artwork Description | Detail view of leaded glass located above glass doorways. The glasswork exhibits partial views of people sitting at a diner. On the left is a person, dressed in a tan jacket who seems to be leaving the diner and has his hand in his pocket. The other three diners are sitting at a counter with their backs facing the viewer. All characters are partially represented, with only the middle part of their bodies shown. The person on the left wears a brightly checkered jacket. In the middle, a person with long, dark hair reads what appears to be a newspaper. On the far right, another person wears a blue shirt, brown pants or skirt and a white apron. |
