Saint-Martin Church

This stained glass window represents Saint-Pierre-Fourier.

This stained glass window depicts Saint-Pierre-Fourier. Saint-Pierre-Fourier is depicted standing in a protective posture, slightly inclined towards a young boy. He holds a cross in one hand, a red book in the other, while the child, hands clasped in prayer, looks up at him with devotion. The angular lines and abstract shapes, typical of the modernist style, structure the scene and highlight the central elements: the cross, the young boy and the benevolent figure of the saint. The name “St Pierre Fourier” is clearly indicated at the bottom left, and the signature of the glassmakers “Benoit Frères Nancy 1954” appears at the bottom right, testifying to the origin and authenticity of the work.
