Window life of Jesus in Quéménéven

The Life of Jesus window in Quéménéven , a French parish in the Finistère department of Brittany , was created in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. The stained glass window in the Notre-Dame chapel in the Kergoat district was added to the list of architectural monuments in France as Monument historique in 1898 .

Window number 8 in the choir was created by an unknown workshop. It shows scenes from the life of Jesus and the Passion on two lancets .

In the tracery , Mary with child is shown surrounded by two angels.

In addition to the saints window, nine other remarkable windows from the 15th and 16th centuries have been preserved in the chapel (see navigation bar).
