Church of Saint Gontrude

This stained glass window stands out for its modern style with the presence of a strong symbol: the letters A and Ω surrounding the P X of Christ.

This stained glass window is distinguished by its modern and symbolic style, characteristic of the revival of sacred art in the 20th century. It adopts a geometric composition. We can observe a great verticality, reinforced by symmetrical and repetitive patterns, a central axis that seems to represent a column of light or a path to the divine and finally a Chrismon, the trigram of Christ X and P in the center, framed by the letters Alpha (Α) and Omega (Ω). The dominant colors are Yellow and white in the center and the further away from the center it is red and orange that take over. Finally the border is made of blue and green.
