This finely composed stained-glass panel (1448) depicts the baptism of Saint Taurin, the first bishop of Évreux, shown receiving the sacrament from Pope Clement in Rome. The scene belongs to the church’s extensive glazing cycle dedicated to the saint’s life, combining hagiographic narrative with the rich ornamental vocabulary of late medieval Norman glass painting.
