This stained glass window illustrates the Annunciation, a scene where the angel Gabriel announces to Mary that she will conceive Jesus. There are three registers, a celestial vision at the top, the scene of the Annunciation in the center and a medallion at the bottom, with a neo-Gothic decoration. In the center, we see an angel dressed in red and green, holding a branch of lilies, who seems to be addressing a praying character, dressed in blue with a golden halo. A banner in Latin bears the inscription "Ave Maria, Gratia Plena, Dominus Tecum". This is a quote from the Annunciation (Luke 1:28), indicating that the scene represented is the Annunciation. The decoration integrating columns and an architectural frame recalls Mary's house in Nazareth. Above Mary's head, the dove of the Holy Spirit is present.This stained glass window illustrates the Annunciation, a scene where the angel Gabriel announces to Mary that she will conceive Jesus.
