This stained glass window depicts a scene from the Dominican tradition in which Saint Dominic receives the rosary from the Virgin Mary.
This polychrome stained glass window in the neo-Gothic style depicts a religious scene divided into three main registers. In the center, the Virgin Mary in a red dress and green cloak holds a rosary and carries the Child Jesus on her left arm. The Child, dressed in white, is depicted standing in a blessing attitude. Kneeling before them, a man in a black and white monastic habit, identifiable as a member of the Dominican order, surely Saint Dominic, receives the rosary from the Virgin's hand. At his feet, a dog holding a lit candle in its mouth is visible, adding a particular symbolic dimension to the scene. At the bottom of the window, the inscription "1873, Dupont priest Neufchâteau" attests to the date of creation and the provenance of the work.This polychrome stained glass window in the neo-Gothic style depicts a religious scene divided into three main registers.
