This stained glass window shows two figures, on the left Saint Joan of Arc, and on the right Saint Michael the Archangel.
This stained glass window shows two figures, on the left Saint Joan of Arc, in armor, holding a sword against her, and on the right Saint Michael the Archangel, identified by the inscription visible in his halo: "St Michael". Saint Michael is represented in a triumphant posture, holding his shield and sword, and defeating a demon under his feet. This stained glass window is in the tradition of the neo-Gothic of the 19th century, with bright colors, architectural frames and particular attention paid to ornamental details. The columns, the gilded capitals and the semicircular arches, these decorative architectural elements serve as a frame to magnify the scene. The basket of flowers at the top evokes spiritual fertility. This style reflects the interest of the time for medieval symbols and figures of Christianity.This stained glass window shows two figures, on the left Saint Joan of Arc, in armor, holding a sword against her, and on the right Saint Michael the Archangel, identified by the inscription visible in his halo: "St Michael".
