Saint-Pierre — Saint-Paul Church

This stained glass window shows a familiar scene of the Virgin Mary as a child with her parents, Saint Anne and Saint Joachim.

This semicircular stained-glass window, in a style characteristic of 19th-century religious aesthetics, is set within a structured decor of geometric shapes, garlands, painted beads, and stylized foliage. In the center, framed by a cartouche with gilded scrolls, unfolds a familiar scene of the Virgin Mary as a child with her parents, Saint Anne and Saint Joachim. Mary, in the center, as a child, listens. To the left, Saint Anne, her mother, dressed in dark green and purple, watches her attentively. To the right, Saint Joachim, a father figure with a white beard, seems to cast a protective and benevolent gaze over the scene. Around them, nature is abundant. A basket of flowers, a garden pot, a stone wall evoke the family home in Nazareth. This stained-glass window is by J. Benoit
