Opposite the treasury, next to the south transept, the Chapelle de Notre-Dame de la Deliverances dates from the middle of the seventeenth century, its stained glass windows depicting scenes from the life of the Virgin on the upper level with the donors posing down below. The windows were designed by Theodore van Thulden, one of Rubens' pupils, and commissioned by the Infanta Isabella in 1649 - perhaps as spiritual compensation for the drubbing the Habsburgs had recently received from the Dutch, who had secured their independence from Spain the year before.
