Church of St. Mary Magdalene

This stained glass window could represent Saint Mary Magdalene.

This vertical stained glass window is set within a semicircular (round-headed) bay. At the center of an oval medallion sits a haloed female figure. Her gentle face, with fine and peaceful features, her hands clasped in a prayerful gesture, and her frontal posture express deep inner contemplation. She is simply dressed in a brown lace-up tunic, a light-colored long-sleeved blouse, and a white veil covering her auburn hair. The medallion is framed by baroque-inspired motifs such as golden scrolls, stylized foliage, and arabesques. The whole composition is set against a decorative grisaille background featuring vegetal patterns on a milky backdrop. The inner yellow border, trimmed in black, acts as a luminous frame that enhances the central figure.
