"The [glass window]-designs lay ready for months [1922-23] but as the building did not proceed as quickly as it was expected, the glass-cutting was put off again and again. During the last spring it often made her anxious, that the work did not advance, as if she had the feeling that she would never see it finished. And so it was. When at last she had to lie down, never to rise again, the designs lay there, with all the indications how they had to be worked out. Thanks to these minute preparations it has been possible to finish them as a last witness of her genius."
