Neufchâteau, Saint-Nicolas church

This stained glass window presents on several lancets the attributes of Jesus' sacrifice for the salvation of humanity.

This stained glass window is a set of several lancets, illustrating different religious figures. The organization of the stained glass window follows a vertical narrative pattern, where each character is presented in a solemn and isolated manner, in a frame decorated with floral and geometric motifs. On the left, an angel dressed in blue and red, wears the crown of thorns, in the center, two holy figures, a religious Saint in a brown robe and a bearded Saint with a staff carrying the Lamb of God, finally on the right, two angels probably linked to the Passion of Christ since we can see a veil representing the Shroud of Veronica and the nails of the crucifixion. The whole is dominated by floral motifs, pointed arches and decorative lobes, characteristic of the neo-Gothic style of the 19th century.
