Take your time to appreciate how Julio Urruela depicted the literary works of various Guatemalan authors on each one of the pieces. Pasaje Sexta safeguards 10 pieces, the biggest out of all of them reside within the National Palace of Culture. 

The authors mentioned in the stained-glass pieces are the following: José Bátres Montúfar, Rafael Landivar,  Juan Diéguez Olaverri, Fray Matías de Córdova, Osmundo Arriola, Francisco Rivera Maestre, Juan Fermín Aycinena, Manuel Cabral de la Cerda, Rafael García Goyena and Alberto Mencos. Each piece has an excerpt of the literary work that inspired it at the bottom.
