Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The windows of the Schnewlin Chapel in the choir of the Freiburg Minster, strongly painted over in 1870-71 by Heinrich Helmle (1829-1909), date to 1525. According to an inscription, they were financed by the Schnewlin Gresser Endowment in memory of the Freiburg patrician and mayor Johannes Schnewlin, who died in 1347. The artistic and religious theme of the windows is St. John the Baptist, Schnewlin's name patron. The windows' formal similarity to those of the University Chapel suggests that they were likely designed by the Hans Burgkmair circle.
Deutsch: Die Fenster der Schnewlin-Kapelle im Hochchor des Freiburger Münsters wurden 1525 angefertigt und 1870/71 von Heinrich Helmle (1829-1909) stark übermalt. Laut einer Inschrift wurden sie von der Schnewlin Gresser Stiftung finanziert, die den Nachlass des Freiburger Patriziers und Bürgermeisters Johannes Schnewlin (†1347) verwaltete. Das künstlerische und religiöse Thema der Fenster ist Johannes der Täufer, Schnewlins Namenspatron. Ihre formale Ähnlichkeit mit den Fenstern der Universitätskapelle legt den Schluss nahe, dass sie im Kreise um Hans Burgkmair entstanden sind.
