This stained glass panel, "Geboorte van Mozes" (Birth of Moses) by Dirck Pietersz. Crabeth, depicts the biblical scene of Moses's birth. Crafted around 1550, the artwork showcases the artist's mastery in depicting detailed figures and architectural elements within a richly layered composition. The panel, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, features a multi-level setting, with a reclining figure of Jochebed, Moses's mother, in the foreground, while a woman bathes the baby in a basin. The background depicts a bustling city scene, highlighting the architectural style of the time. The panel's vibrant colors and intricate details make it a compelling example of 16th-century Dutch stained glass art.
