Saints-Pierre-Paul Church of Bulgnéville

This stained glass window depicts a Nativity scene.

This vertical stained glass window, set within a semicircular arch, presents us with a scene of the Nativity. At the heart of the scene, the Infant Jesus, wrapped in white swaddling clothes and surrounded by a golden halo, lies in the arms of his mother, the Virgin Mary. She is dressed in a blue mantle and a pink tunic. At their side stands Saint Joseph, also haloed, wearing a robe of purple and gold. In the background, behind the Holy Family, the stone walls of the stable can be seen, along with the heads of an ox and a donkey. At the top of the window, in the arched section, three angels with outstretched wings, clothed in green, red, and white, make music with a lute, a zither, and their voices. Above them shines the Star of Bethlehem. The entire composition is framed by a decorative Neo-Gothic vegetal border, adorned with motifs of red, green, and gold scrollwork.
