This stained glass window depicts a poignant scene from the Gospel according to Luke chapter 23, verses 42 and 43: the promise made by Jesus to the "good thief" crucified at his side. This scene is inscribed in a semi-circular frame divided by pastel geometric panels, with stylized floral motifs on the periphery. The upper register highlights Jesus and the good thief in a central medallion. The two figures are represented with expressiveness, capturing a moment of divine mercy. The cartouche at the bottom of the window repeats the phrase spoken by the good thief: "Lord, remember me when you are in your Kingdom."
