Church of Our Lady of the Nativity

The stained glass window represents Saint Ursula.

The stained glass window depicts Saint Ursula, identifiable by the inscription at the bottom, which states: "Ste Ursule. Donné par Hedvige Bernard, 1864." This work is part of a Gothic composition characterized by pointed arches and a symmetrical arrangement of decorative elements. Saint Ursula is depicted standing, crowned, holding a palm in one hand, a symbol of her martyrdom. She is dressed in a long golden dress, adorned with a green and purple cloak, which emphasizes her noble and sacred status. The stained glass window uses a vertical composition that highlights the figure of Saint Ursula. The perfect symmetry of the decorative elements around her emphasizes her importance as the protagonist of the work. The figure is framed by floral motifs (leaves and flowers) and ornamental medallions. The background is dominated by a deep blue, a color associated with holiness and spirituality.
