In the foreground of this village scene are depicted women, children, and an old man. All the figures in this scene are in groups of three, all facing right. Three women are milking a small cow, three children are together, and a woman carrying a baby accompanies the old man. Behind them, three people are tending two donkeys. In the background, three men are watching the scene.
The orientation of the figures leads us to imagine that this stained-glass window was part of a larger, probably religious, ensemble. It's easy to imagine that they are all facing Jesus.
This stained-glass window was created on plain colored glass painted with grisaille, enamel, and silver, fired at a high temperature, and then set with lead.
Circa 1900.
The metal frame is new.
