Head of Christ (one of a pair)

This luminous roundel presents a solemn, haloed Christ, his gaze directed slightly downward, a subtle sadness in his expression. Created from colored, stained, and enameled glass, the work was likely part of a larger window, perhaps from a private chapel or a domestic setting, offering a personal devotional focus. The delicate rendering of Christ's features, particularly his flowing hair and beard, demonstrates the refined artistry possible with glass in the late 15th century. Light passing through the intricately painted glass brings the image to life, making the colors glow with an inner luminescence. This piece is one of a pair, originally complemented by a depiction of Saint John the Baptist, suggesting a thematic pairing common in religious art of the period.
