Walk to the Monastery of l'Annonciade - Stained Glass


A last look around the Monastery before we walk back down - yes, we walked up so we've got to walk down - and, anyway, there are one or two more good things to see.

Today - a stained glass window in the chapel - a sign outside the monastery shop and below, a view of the monastery from below - you can see the stained glass windows of the chapel on the left.

  5. Love the contemporary glass window of the "Holy Spirit!" Such a coincidence because we just finished a series of classes called "All Roads Lead to Rome," and last night we saw several examples of The Holy Spirit during the Baroque period. Such differences, but I love both syles!

  10. I love the colours of the glass in this window. No garish red or green, just nice subtle colours that combine well together.
