This 1541 drawing by Gerrit Boels, titled "Lauwerkrans met letter C of G," is a design for a stained-glass window in the west facade of the Sint Bavo Church in Haarlem. The design features a laurel wreath surrounding the letters "C" and "G", representing Joris van Egmond, Bishop of Utrecht from 1535 to 1559. The drawing's intricate details and delicate lines suggest a skilled hand and careful planning for the final stained-glass piece. This artwork offers a glimpse into the artistic practices of the 16th century and the meticulous craftsmanship required for stained-glass windows.
