This neo-Gothic stained glass window probably represents Saint Joseph on the left and Saint Anne on the right.
This Neo-Gothic stained-glass window is composed of two slender lancets. It features, in its upper half, two full-length biblical figures. The rest of the window is decorated with geometric and foliate panels. The two main figures are located in architectural niches, typical of the Neo-Gothic style. On the left, the bearded man with a halo, dressed in a yellow tunic and a purple-red cloak, holds a staff adorned with lilies. On the ground at his feet, an axe can be seen; this is the tool of Saint Joseph, the carpenter. On the right, the woman with a halo, also full-length, dressed in a red cloak and a purple dress, holds an open book. This iconography is typical of Saint Anne, the mother of the Virgin Mary. The upper figure in the medallion appears to be an angel.This Neo-Gothic stained-glass window is composed of two slender lancets. It features, in its upper half, two full-length biblical figures.
