The Nativity Glass Panel

This Luminous Hand-Painted Glass Panel Has Been Reproduced From A 15Th-Century Stained-Glass Panel In The Met Collection. Originally Installed In The Carmelite Church At Boppard, In The German Rhineland, This Panel With Its Nativity Scene Was Once Part Of A Window Depicting The Ancestry Of Christ. The Painter Of These Windows Adopted An Angular Style Of Breaking Drapery Folds And Subtle Juxtapositions Of Brilliant Color, Initiating A New Style Of Glass Painting In The Middle Rhine.
