This stained glass window represents Saint Clare in front of the Blessed Sacrament.
The stained-glass window is set within a large semicircular arch, typical of stained-glass windows from the 1950s and 1960s, in a style that is both figurative and stylized. A haloed angel with multicolored wings supports and guides a saint. To the right, the Blessed Sacrament appears in a flamboyant monstrance placed on an altar. Red and gold rays symbolize the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. Saint Clare of Assisi, in a brown habit and white veil, is depicted in a pose of ecstasy. Above all this, we notice a stylized white cross, framed by orange, yellow, and mauve geometric patterns. The inscription "St. Clare in ECSTASY BEFORE THE BLESSED SACRAMENT" can be read, accompanied by the donors' mention: "Gift from the Maurice Cuoq family – Young girls of the parish."
