A diamond in the center of the window masks out part of the scene.
Within this mask, a different model (a sphere) is drawn in a different color.

The reason is if the window gets "damaged" then the stencil buffer contents will be in an undefined state (myReshape is not called when a window is damaged and needs to be redrawn). If the stencil buffer contents are undefined, the results of display() are unpredictable.
