From an important set of four stained-glass windows, made by Joseph Benoit (1871-1939) who was also associated with another famous Master glassmaker from Lorraine, Georges Janin. In 1921 he founded his own stained glass workshop in Nancy. From 1936 to 1957, his sons Henry and Pierre took over the workshop, which worked with painters such as Camille Hilaire and Antoine-René Giguet.
