    Iconography

    Description

    Ce vitrail relate le deuxième jour de la Création du monde. Dieu, symbolisé par un être lumineux, sépare les eaux. Il retient les eaux du ciel dans la partie supérieure, alors qu’en bas, les océans se rassemblent. Entre-deux jaillit le firmament. Un liseré d’or encadre la scène. La scène est dominée par les tons froids (différentes nuances de bleu et de violet) dans la partie inférieure alors qu'en haut les teintes deviennent plus claires avec des touches de jaune, de rose et de bleu.
