L'aspect extérieur sobre de l'église contraste avec l'opulence artistique de l'intérieur, caractérisé par une abondance de matériaux somptueux tels que le marbre, l'onyx et la marqueterie, harmonisés avec une iconographie riche et vivante. La décoration, en parfait accord avec l'architecture, se déploie selon deux axes majeurs : la verticalité symbolisant l'élévation de l'âme vers Dieu, et l'horizontalité racontant l'histoire du monde centrée sur le Christ.
La verrière "Le Christ en gloire" s'inscrit dans cette vision globale, offrant une lecture en grand format et en images de la Bible. Elle incarne la victoire du Christ sur la mort et la promesse de la vie éternelle. Ses couleurs riches et sa composition élaborée ravissent le regard, invitant les fidèles à contempler la gloire du Seigneur. Parmi les quinze verrières entourant la nef, celle-ci évoque les mystères du Rosaire, relatant les différentes étapes de la vie de Jésus : de la joie de l'Annonciation à la gloire de l'Ascension.
Ainsi, la verrière "Le Christ en gloire" symbolise la quintessence de la foi chrétienne, rappelant aux fidèles la présence vivifiante du Christ dans leur vie quotidienne et l'espérance de la résurrection.
Pour la photographie de cette verrière, une technique complexe a été employée, alliant HDR, focus stacking et post-production. De plus, le travail en post-production a inclus une minutieuse restauration numérique du vitrail, corrigeant les imperfections et les détériorations accumulées au fil du temps pour restituer son éclat originel.
La photo finale, réalisée en Fine Art, a été imprimée sur du papier Hahnemühle Rag Metallic, offrant une qualité exceptionnelle et une profondeur des couleurs qui met en valeur la richesse et la finesse des détails de la verrière. Encadrée en caisse américaine aluminium noire, cette œuvre met en exergue toute la splendeur et la richesse artistique de la verrière "Le Christ en gloire", capturant ainsi l'essence même de l'art sacré qui caractérise l'église Saint-Blaise.
