The “rose window” is a dimensional portal in the program. Likely the poster is unaware of the rose window in the Notre Dame cathedral and assumed the discussion was related to the show.

There are holes were the window use to be and burn marks on the outside of the building around where the window was.

probably countless other pieces of art are lost. Just from a historical stand point it's tragic. On an emotional level this is just devastating.
