This stained-glass window depicts the Virgin Mary giving the rosary to Saint Dominic. Gift of Mrs. NICOLAS THOMAS.
This pointed-arch stained-glass window is part of the neo-Gothic ornamental tradition of the late 19th century. It depicts a mystical vision centered on the Virgin Mary in majesty, seated on a cloud, and a monk adoring Saint Dominic, kneeling at her feet. The scene is set off in an oval medallion, richly framed with gilded arabesques and stylized plant motifs. The red damask background reinforces the solemnity of the celestial vision. Mary, wearing a halo, is dressed in a red robe and a blue mantle. She offers a rosary to the monk. Saint Dominic, in a white habit with a dark hood, receives him with open arms. At his side, a dog with a torch in its mouth accompanies him.
