God's promise

Noah's ark with God's promise above in the form of a rainbow. And are those the 'horns' of Moses below or just heavenly light shining down on the world? Detail of one of a set of 1980s windows in the basilica of Sacré-Coeur du Prado, Marseille. The work of Atelier Bernard Dhonneur, only one window appears to have been signed and, alas, I can't read the artists' names. The windows aren't mentioned at all in the excellent book about the basilica, though they are included in some of the shots. There is no indication anywhere of what themes the windows may be depicting either.
