This stained glass window depicts the Assumption of Mary. At the center, Mary, dressed in a blue and red robe, symbolizing her purity and love, ascends to heaven with her hands clasped in prayer. At the top left, Jesus, recognizable by his cross, watches the ascent of his mother. In the center, the Holy Spirit, represented by a radiant dove, hovers above Mary, and to the right, God the Father, seated on a throne of clouds, completes this celestial Trinity. On either side of Mary, two angels accompany her in her ascent. The angel on the left, holding a scepter and a crown, signifies Mary's royalty as Queen of Heaven. The angel on the right carries a flowering lily, a symbol of her purity and virginity. The architecture of the stained glass, with its slender arches and geometric patterns, guides our gaze to the center, where Mary dominates. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the borders frame this sacred scene, creating a space for contemplation and prayer.This stained glass window depicts the Assumption of Mary.
