This stained glass window represents Saint-Pierre-Fourier.
This stained glass window depicts Saint Pierre Fourier. At the bottom of the window, we can read "St P. Fourier", which corresponds to Saint Pierre Fourier, a French priest and reformer born in 1565 and died in 1640, known for his works of charity and his dedication to the poor and education. Pierre Fourier was a canon regular of Saint-Augustin, and he is often depicted in black habit, symbolizing modesty and piety, as seen here. He holds a red book, probably representing his commitment to teaching and religious reform, as well as his contribution to Christian education. He founded, with Alix Le Clerc, the congregation of the Canonesses of Saint-Augustin of the Congrégation de Notre-Dame, dedicated to the education of young girls. This stained glass window pays tribute to Saint Pierre Fourier, known for his charity and his educational vision.This stained glass window depicts Saint Pierre Fourier.
