This polychrome stained glass window of great ornamental richness is a representation of Saint Andrew.

This polychrome stained glass window of great ornamental richness is a representation of Saint Andrew, easily identifiable by his main attribute: the cross in the shape of an "X", called the cross of Saint Andrew, which he holds in his arms. The saint is dressed in a long red tunic and a draped cloak. His face is marked by a long gray beard. A golden halo encircles his head, marking his status as a saint and the headband inscribed "Sanctus Andreas" confirms his identification. The borders of the stained glass window are decorated with stylized floral motifs, with an alternation of bright colors (red, blue, green, yellow) that frame the central image and highlight the saint.
