A stained-glass window painted in grisaille and silver yello - Lot 336
A stained-glass window painted in grisaille and silver yellow, depicting the animals entering Noah’s Ark (Genesis 2:7). Along the banks of a river, pairs of animals gather and cross a footbridge to board the ark; Noah, with his hands clasped and kneeling, prays as he watches the scene. Noah’s family is also making their way to the ark. God the Father presides over the biblical scene, appearing amid the clouds. France or Flanders, second third of the 16th century H.: cm – W.: 14.1 cm (broken, missing pieces) The composition of this depiction closely resembles a fresco by Aurelio Luini (1530–1592) housed in Milan’s Church of San Maurizio del Monastero Maggiore and painted in 1556.
