Monstrance
The Ateneo Church of the Gesù has two side chapels. One chapel is dedicated to the Immaculate Conception and the other is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This Sacred Heart Chapel is also known as the Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament because it is the one used for the exposition of the consecrated Eucharistic Host—note the monstrance built into the base of the crucifix.
Assuming this to be a window, it must be such a great sight, to see the suns light behind those colourful glasses.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful placed in scene also without daylight, by your photography.

ReplyDeleteIt's so beautiful and the colours brings energy positive, reminds us to fight for the right things in life, protection for those who are oppressed, the courage to always tell the truth especially for our own heart.

ReplyDeleteI didn't go up to the altar to touch the artwork so I don't know for sure, but I don't think it's glass. It wasn't shiny and there were no reflections at all. My guess is it's enamel.
