A circular stained-glass window is centrally positioned within a vaulted ceiling constructed of reddish-brown bricks
A circular stained-glass window is centrally positioned within a vaulted ceiling constructed of reddish-brown bricks. The bricks are laid in horizontal courses following the curve of the dome, with visible mortar lines. The stained-glass window itself displays a complex, symmetrical design featuring stylized birds with predominantly blue and red plumage, yellow and pink accents, and green foliage with red berries. A central yellow and orange geometric pattern radiates outwards, surrounded by the avian and botanical motifs. The individual glass panels are held together by a dark metal framework, which also forms the structural divisions of the circular window. The window is set into a lighter, possibly stucco or stone, circular opening that transitions into the surrounding brickwork. This architectural feature is located within the dome of the Parroquia de Santa Prisca y San Sebastián (Santa Prisca Church) in Taxco de Alarcón, Guerrero, Mexico.
