This 1545 stained glass panel from St. Gallen depicts the Biblical story of the "Finding of Moses." Pharaoh's daughter is depicted as a young woman, wearing a crown, in the center of the composition, discovering the baby Moses in a basket in the Nile River. The panel also includes a landscape scene with a distant cityscape, likely representing the setting of the story. This artwork is one of a pair and is currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
