Childhood of Jesus and Mary (Les Iffs)
The Childhood of Jesus and Mary window in the Catholic parish church of St-Ouen in Les Iffs , a French parish in the Ille-et-Vilaine department in the Brittany region , was created around 1535. The leaded glass window was added to the list of architectural monuments in France in 1906 as Monument historique .
The window depicts the childhood of Jesus in different scenes: birth , circumcision and presentation in the temple. In addition, the passage to the Temple and the Assumption of Mary are depicted.
In addition to this window, eight other windows from the Renaissance period have been preserved in the church (see navigation bar).
