Saint-Michel Church

This stained glass window adopts a rigorous composition, built on a colored checkerboard.

The stained glass window presented here adopts a colorful checkerboard structure, composed of squares and rectangles, in a palette of bright colors including blue, red, yellow, orange and purple. It is part of an ordered composition, alternating varied glass textures. In the upper part, we observe a central circular element, framed by geometric shapes that recall stylized medieval motifs. This element could be interpreted as a sun, a Eucharistic host or a divine symbol. This stained glass window moves away from traditional figurative representations to adopt a purely abstract and symbolic language, where light and color play a preponderant role.
