This stained-glass window from the Saint-Pierre church in Blévaincourt, dating from 1896, is an ornamental piece. Vertical, it is set within a semicircular bay. It is composed of regular panels, organized in a symmetrical grid of great geometric rigor. Each of these panels is decorated with intersecting circles and stylized plant scrolls. The overall structure is based on alternating quatrefoil motifs and acanthus leaf or vine decorations, drawn in grisaille on a milky white background. The edge of the window is framed by a vertical band in red, green, blue, gold, and purple. Stylized flowers, interlacing patterns, and small white circular cabochons follow one another. At the very bottom, the inscription "DAUVOIN 1896" is legible.This stained-glass window from the Saint-Pierre church in Blévaincourt, dating from 1896, is an ornamental piece.
