    I didn't know that the stained glass art style is art Nouveau! I bet Alfons Mucha had something to do with it

    You're right. He's the author of this window.

    Amazing detail in the glass. What height is the window?

    I honestly couldn’t tell you. They’re huge. This was also early in the morning and the sun was just peeking through at the right moment.

    They are very hard to photograph. Getting the perspective and lighting correct, especially on the large ones.

    More specifically, this is the Saint Vitus cathedral which is part of the Prague Castle. This window is from part of the building that was finished much later (1929) and the author was Alfons Mucha himself. The older parts of it are from 14th century but it wasn't completed until the 20th century.
