Saint-Marcel Church

This stained glass window represents Saint Joseph and the baby Jesus.

This stained glass window depicts two holy figures: a haloed man holding a white fleur-de-lis in his left hand and a child at his side. The artistic style is typical of 19th-century creations, mixing bright colours and ornamental motifs with figurative scenes loaded with symbolism. The borders are richly decorated with floral and geometric motifs in harmony with all the stained glass windows in the church. The main character, dressed in a yellow tunic and a red cloak, is a protective male figure, identified as Saint Joseph, he holds in one hand a white lily, symbol of purity and in the other a child. This child dressed in a white tunic and haloed represents Jesus in his childhood.
