This stained glass window represents Saint Pierre Fourier, an important figure in Lorraine Catholicism.
Saint Peter Fourier is depicted full-length, wearing a long black cassock, a symbol of his priestly function. His raised right hand gesture is a sign of blessing or teaching, marking his role as a spiritual guide. His red halo around his head confirms his status as a saint. The background features a decoration decorated with floral motifs and columns in shades of pink and blue, harmoniously framing the central figure. The stained glass window is topped with a semicircular arch, faithful to the neo-Romanesque style. The side frames feature red and gold plant motifs, characteristic of the 19th century, the period when the stained glass window was produced. Saint Peter Fourier (1565-1640) is an emblematic figure of Lorraine. He was a priest and reformer, founder of the Congregation of Our Saviour and an ardent defender of education.Saint Peter Fourier is depicted full-length, wearing a long black cassock, a symbol of his priestly function.
