Ardon Windows, Stained glass triptych at National Library of Israel, Jerusalem.
The Ardon Windows display three interconnected glass panels that combine modern artistic techniques with traditional stained glass craftsmanship at the National Library.
Mordecai Ardon created these stained glass windows in 1984, marking a substantial addition to the National Library of Israel's architectural features.
The windows interpret Isaiah's vision of eternal peace through colored glass panels, incorporating Jewish spiritual themes into contemporary Israeli art.
Visitors can observe the stained glass windows in the Judaica reading room foyer of the National Library during regular opening hours.
The triptych spans 1,700 centimeters in width, making it one of the largest stained glass installations in an Israeli public institution.
