Panel with the Standard Bearer of the Landsknecht Karl von Egeri (?) 1551 Switzerland, Zurich Coloured and painted glass, lead l 49.5 cm, w 38.5 cm This stained glass was executed after a drawing by the German painter Hans Holbein the Younger, The Standard Bearer from Livental, dating from 1519-1520. It is well known that the painter made many designs for decorative items, particularly stained glass, but only few works after his design have actually survived. This lends a particular interest to the Hermitage example. The composition and superb decorative qualities of this work allow us to attribute it to Karl von Egeri.
