Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas, has acquired a monumental Tiffany stained-glass window titled "Mountain Landscape (Root Memorial Window)," created by Tiffany Studios in 1917 and designed by Agnes Northrup. The 9-foot-tall, 8-foot-wide window, which depicts a cascading waterfall and mountains, was previously installed for 94 years at the Sunset Ridge Church and Collective in San Antonio, Texas. It is only the second Tiffany work in the museum's collection, joining a wisteria lamp donated in 2022.
