Title
Procession of the Deacon Angels (detail)
Object type painting
object_type QS:P31,Q3305213
Description

The detail from the Eucharistic window shows the procession of angels who, as deacons, stride towards the altar. They are swinging censers. The clouds of smoke support the movement from the lower right to the left in the centre of the picture and link the two halves of the picture. In terms of colour, the clouds of smoke merge with the white clothes of the personification of the faithful.

The ram at the bottom left has become entangled in the thorny bushes. It reminds us that a ram was sacrificed instead of Isaac. This Old Testament sacrificial lamb points to the New Testament: Christ sacrificed himself for humanity. This is depicted - not visible in this detail of the picture - in the taking down of the cross.
