Valentin Bousch, Metz, France
1533
(Please also see preceding and following photos.)
Valentin Bousch created this window in 1533 for the Benedictine Priory at Flavigny-sur-Moselle, France. Companion windows from the Priory are now at The Cloisters of the Metropolitan Museum in New York.
It is unfortunate that Vancouver did not find a way to retain this unique Renaissance treasure.
Links to two newspaper stories on the loss of the window from Canada are on our Links page.
