"Stained Glass Window Saint Louis Nineteenth"
Stained glass window representing Saint Louis painted with enamels, grisaille and silver yellow on smooth glass. Signed Marchand et Cie, Paris. In the center of the stained glass window, a portrait of Saint Louis crowned and wearing a fleur-de-lis coat. He is also recognizable by the royal attributes he holds in his hands: the crown of thorns and the scepter. A decorative frieze of fleur-de-lys in diamond shapes runs all around the edge of the panel. Between plant motifs, the background is squared by fine lines of grisaille, this is the so-called fly cage technique, widely used in the 19th century in neogothic churches. 19th century
