Raising Lazarus from the dead (Fougères)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Window Raising Lazarus in Fougères

The Raising of Lazarus window in the Catholic parish church of St-Léonard in Fougères , a French town in the Ille-et-Vilaine department in Brittany , was created in the 16th century. The stained glass window was added to the list of architectural monuments in France in 1944 as Monument historique .

The two-part window in the baptistery comes from an unknown workshop. It represents the raising of Lazarus from the dead.

The window was restored in the 19th century and missing parts were added.
