Caption Description The staff of the United Nations and Marc Chagall donated a stained glass panel designed by the French artist as a memorial to Dag Hammarskjöld and 15 others who died in a plane crash in Africa, 17 September 1961, while on a peace mission.
The panel is 15 feet wide and 12 feet high. It is predominantly blue in colour. In it Chagall sought to express the simplicity and beauty of the ideals of peace and brotherhood for which the UN was founded. Symbols of peace and love can be found throughout the panel. In the centre is the figure of a young child being kissed on the cheek by an angelic face which emerges from a mass of flowers; the right hand side suggests mankind's yearning for peace, its prophets and its victims, and symbols of law. On the left are depicted motherhood and people struggling for peace.
