The Geneva Window, also known as the Irish Window, is a celebrated work of stained glass by Harry Clarke, one of Ireland's most renowned artists in the medium. Commissioned in 1926 by the Irish government for the International Labour Court in Geneva, Switzerland, the window was intended to represent Ireland and its culture. Clarke, already famous for his intricate and evocative stained glass work, chose to depict scenes from various works of Irish literature, including the short story "The Weaver's Grave" by Seumas O'Kelly.

"The Weaver's Grave" is one of the eight literary panels within the Geneva Window, each meticulously crafted to capture the essence of the respective narrative. Clarke's depiction of O'Kelly's story is a testament to his ability to convey complex themes and emotions through the interplay of colored glass and light. The panel illustrates a poignant scene from the tale, which explores themes of mortality, reverence for the dead, and the clash between tradition and modernity.

Clarke's work on the Geneva Window was completed in 1930. However, the window was never installed in its intended location due to concerns from the Irish government about the depiction of certain scenes considered to be of an inappropriate nature for a public commission. As a result, the window remained in Clarke's studio until his death in 1931 and was subsequently sold to a private collector.

Today, the Geneva Window is recognized as one of Harry Clarke's masterpieces, showcasing his unique style that combines elements of the Art Nouveau and Symbolist movements with a distinctive Irish character. The window is celebrated for its technical brilliance, rich colors, and the intricate detail of its design, which continues to captivate viewers and stands as a significant contribution to the history of Irish art.
