This stained glass window presents two distinct religious figures, framed by a geometric and plant decoration.
This neo-Gothic stained glass window, structured in two vertical lancets topped with a richly decorated quatrefoil, presents two distinct religious figures, framed by a geometric and plant decoration. Each lancet is divided into three registers. In the upper and lower registers, decorative geometric motifs are dominated by quatrefoil shapes and stylized foliage, in bright colors (red, green, blue, yellow, and translucent white), bringing luminosity and aesthetic harmony to the whole. In the middle register (figurative) are on the left, a holy nun, probably Saint Teresa of Avila dressed in a monastic robe (black and white religious habit), reading an open book. On the right, a holy priest wearing a black cassock topped with a white surplice and a golden stole. He holds a closed book in his left hand, while his right hand is raised in a sign of teaching or blessing.This neo-Gothic stained glass window, structured in two vertical lancets topped with a richly decorated quatrefoil, presents two distinct religious figures, framed by a geometric and plant decoration.
