This stained glass window depicts a scene of great tenderness, Saint Joseph holding the Infant Jesus in his arms.

This stained glass window depicts a scene of great tenderness, with Saint Joseph holding the Infant Jesus in his arms. Saint Joseph is dressed in a pink tunic and a cloak that is red on the outside and green on the inside. The Infant Jesus, nestled against him, rests peacefully, embodying protection and paternal gentleness. The white lily held by Joseph is a symbol of purity and chastity, traditionally associated with his iconography. The stained glass window is framed by richly decorated neo-Gothic architecture, with floral and geometric motifs in bright colors, including blue, red and gold. The upper pointed arch and the trilobed ornaments recall the Gothic influence, while integrating the decorative trends of the 19th century.
