Stained glass window depicts a holy martyred bishop, probably Saint-Privat.
This 19th-century neo-Gothic stained-glass window, rich in color and decorative motifs, depicts a standing bishop saint, dressed in solemn liturgical vestments. The saint wears a golden episcopal miter on his head and holds a crozier in his right hand. In his left hand, he holds a green palm, a traditional symbol of martyrdom. His face is dignified, serene, and slightly turned upward. The saint is dressed in a richly decorated red chasuble, lined with a green dalmatic and a white alb. The background of the window is deep blue, highlighting the vivid colors of his vestments and the decorative ornaments surrounding him. A rich frame of stylized and geometric plant motifs in shimmering colors (green, blue, red, yellow) emphasizes the nobility of the figure. The cartouche at the bottom of the stained glass window is unfortunately partially erased, but the letters still visible strongly suggest the name “St. PRIVAT”, most likely confirming that he is the patron saint of this church.This 19th-century neo-Gothic stained-glass window, rich in color and decorative motifs, depicts a standing bishop saint, dressed in solemn liturgical vestments.
