Index of Gothique all
Ce vitrail (vers 1550) illustre des épisodes du martyre de saint Vincent de Saragosse, l'un des diacres les plus vénérés des premiers siècles de l'Église. Réalisé par un atelier rouenais au début du XVIe siècle. Le verre adopte la disposition classique de la série narrative des vitraux de Saint-Ouen : des scènes disposées sous de riches dais gothiques, chaque panneau présentant un moment précis de la Passion du saint.
This window (c1550) presents a sequence from the Life and Martyrdom of St Agnes, the young Roman virgin celebrated for her steadfast refusal to accept a pagan suitor and her unwavering confession of faith. Produced by a Rouen workshop in the early sixteenth century, the window follows the typical Saint-Ouen format: narrative scenes set beneath tall Gothic canopies, framed by alternating architectural and landscape elements.
This window is a composite assembly combining fragments of sixteenth-century stained glass with nineteenth-century architectural structures and extensive twentieth-century restoration. The present arrangement consists of five tall lancets surmounted by a unified canopy system reconstructed in 1852, with bases and pedestals also installed at that time.
