The Stained glass is from one of the high windows to the side of the High Altar of Oura Cathedral. Within the top of the window frame is a large circular window similar to a rose window, below which are two linked pointed arches that are almost the same shape as the whole window itself. These are subdivided by small strips, into which different colors of glass are fitted.Interesting fact
