Summary

[edit]
Description
English: These stained glass windows from the western side of the Blumeneck Family Chapel in the Freiburg Minster date to 1882-83 and were made in the Freiburg workshop of Heinrich Helmle (1829-1909) and Albert Merzweiler (1844-1906) with the assistance of the stained glass artist Eugen Börner and the painter Hugo Huber. They are copies of the original panes which are now in the Augustinermuseum of Freiburg and were presumably designed ca. 1517 by Hans Baldung Grien.

In the left-hand panel, the donor Sebastian von Blumeneck (sometimes spelled Blumneck) kneels with his two wives Apollonia, née von Breisach, and Beatrix, née Beschelt. Before him is his family coat of arms, topped with a bishop's mitre and a fan of feathers as a helm crest. Alongside it are the two coats of arms of his wives. Blumeneck was mayor of Freiburg several times, and therefore bears on the breast of his tunic a red cross, the shield of Freiburg. The three figures are portrayed before a pale green hill that merges with the fenced garden of Gethsemane with the Agony of Christ depicted on the right-hand panel. Above the donors, Psalm 31:5 appears in a banderole: "O Lord, into Thine hand I commit my spirit: Thou hast redeemed me, o Lord God of truth."

In the right-hand panel, Christ kneels before a brown rock at the picture's edge, his hands stretched forward pleadingly. Above him hovers the chalice, the symbol of his impending sacrificial death. The disciples Peter, John, and James, clothed in brilliantly colored garments, are sitting before him asleep. The traitor Judas Iscariot, holding a bag of silver coins, enters with Roman soldiers through the garden gate in the background.
