This stained glass panel, created in 1611 by Hans Iakob Wirth, is a testament to the artistry of the early 17th century. The piece features an intricate design of stylized figures and a central coat of arms, likely depicting a noble family. Surrounding the central image are scenes of hunting and other activities, all rendered in a delicate and detailed manner. The rich color palette and the use of black lead lines in the panel exemplify the characteristics of the German Renaissance, with a distinct emphasis on decorative elements and religious symbolism. This "Panel" now resides in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, offering viewers a glimpse into the artistry and religious devotion of the era.
