The work consists of 168 stained glass modules, handmade in 2005, with lead reinforcement, in the stained glass technique. The approval procedure began several years ago. It is a work by the Romanian artist Gheorghe Dican, vice-president of the Union of Fine Artists of Romania. The stained-glass dome covers an area of about 150 square metres and depicts the “Making of the World”. The creation stands about 30 metres above the base of the building.
