Unidentified Saint Composite Window - Abbey Church of Saint-Ouen, Rouen
This window (c1550) is a composite assemblage combining fragments of sixteenth-century narrative glass with nineteenth-century architectural framing and extensive twentieth-century restoration. The programme appears to have depicted episodes from the life of an unidentified saint. According to Jean Lafond, one of the surviving scenes may represent the translation of relics, suggesting a cycle related either to Saint Ouen or Saint Leufroy. The identification, however, remains uncertain due to the fragmentary nature of the surviving iconography.

Window w.206 forms part of the major early 13th-century glazing programme of the choir clerestory ⓘ at Bourges Cathedral. Like the other apostolic lancets in this zone, it presents three full-length apostles standing beneath architectural canopies, each framed by the characteristic red–blue geometric borders of the Bourges workshop. The style, palette, and facial types align closely with the glazing campaigns dated to c.1210–1215.
