This stained glass window shows on the left a holy man, perhaps Saint Vincent de Paul, and on the right Saint Catherine of Alexandria.
This stained glass window, in a pure neo-Gothic style typical of the 19th century, is composed of two large vertical lancets topped with a quatrefoil with geometric and plant motifs. Each lancet has three registers. In the upper and lower registers, we see geometric decorations with quatrefoils and very elaborate plant motifs, in bright colors, including blue, red, green, yellow and white. In the central register (figurative), in the left lancet a saint dressed in a white alb over a dark habit typical of a religious wears a cross, it could be Saint Vincent de Paul. In the right lancet, Saint Catherine of Alexandria martyr holding a palm in one hand and placing the other hand on a broken wheel.This stained glass window, in a pure neo-Gothic style typical of the 19th century, is composed of two large vertical lancets topped with a quatrefoil with geometric and plant motifs.
