Stained-glass window by Evert Duyckinck. A rectangular stained-glass window composed of multiple panes. The top center pane depicts a torch with yellow and orange flames. The top left and right panes feature brown and gray curled designs on a white background, accompanied by brown leaf-like designs on the adjacent panes. The middle section consists of a central pane with a black shield bearing gold accents and a design resembling a stylized "M". Below the shield are six smaller panes arranged in two columns of three, showcasing various designs, including crowns, crosses, and chevrons, in shades of orange, yellow, black, gray, and brown. The bottom-left pane features a beige banner with a wavy bottom edge and black text, partially obscured. The bottom-right pane is empty and white. The panes are separated by thin black lines. The overall design includes curled brown and gray leaf-like patterns on a white background. The window has a black border.
