Jane Bergman creates rendition of Altgeld glass dome
Jane Bergman has always held a special spot in her heart for the brilliance of stained glass.
That’s why Bergman’s discovery in 2008 that there was once a large, stained glass dome over the library in Altgeld Hall, her very place of work, made such an impact on the university employee.
More than a decade of work later, through countless hours of painstaking research and artistry, Bergman has created a replica of the old dome some 77 years after it was taken down and plastered over.
