Life of Christ. Eglise Saint-Sulpice de Fougères (detail) 1919

Ludovic Alleaume made this section of a stained glass window for the Eglise Saint-Sulpice de Fougères, and just look at the way light becomes emotion here. The colours are like feelings, right? This vibrant blue, that muted green... it's not just looking, it's *experiencing*. I’m drawn to the headscarf. See how Alleaume used delicate lines? It’s like a spider web of light, the way the light seems caught in the gossamer weave. The subtle shadings create such a soft, yielding form, giving a sense of both protection and vulnerability. It reminds me a little of Vuillard. There is a similar embrace of everyday life, with a touch of quiet reverence and wonder. It's like both artists found ways to paint devotion. It’s not just about the picture, it's about how it makes you feel, and the way those feelings can change, shimmer, and evolve over time.
