Brief Description of Subject: Matthew 17:1-8, Mark 9:2-8, Luke 9:28-36
And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John his brother and led them up a high mountain apart. And he was transfigured before them and his face shown like the sun and his garments became white a slight. And behold there appears to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him. And Peter said to Jesus, Lord it is well that we are here: If you wish I will make three booths here, one for you and one for Moses and for Elijah. He was still speaking when lo, a bright cloud overshadowed them and a voice from the clouds said, this is my beloved son, with whom I am well pleased, listen to him. When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces, and were filled with awe. But Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Rise and have no fear” And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only. (Matthew 17:1-8)

The MSGC is a constantly evolving database. Not all the data that has been collected by volunteers has been sorted and entered. Not every building has been completely documented.

All images in the Index are either born-digital photographs of windows or buildings or are scans of slides, prints, or other published sources. These images have been provided by volunteers and the quality of the material varies widely.

If you have any questions, additions or corrections, or think you can provide better images and are willing to share them, please contact donald20@msu.edu
