Neufchâteau, Saint-Nicolas church

This stained glass window is divided into three vertical lancets, representing from left to right, King David; probably St Peter and St Matthew.

This stained glass window is a tripartite composition, divided into three vertical lancets, representing three religious figures. On the left, King David, dressed in red and green, holds a harp; in the center, probably Saint Peter, in red and gold, holds his hand on his heart; on the right, St Matthew or the prophet Isaiah, holds a scroll bearing the announcement of the birth of the Messiah (Matthew 1:23 / Isaiah 7:14). These three characters in the stained glass window are placed under stylized Gothic architectural decorations, composed of towers and arcades. The whole is topped with several circular medallions. At the top, a Christ in glory dressed in blue, on the left and right, the Sacred Heart of Jesus and two central medallions with kneeling angels.
