Jesus and the Samaritan Woman at the Well

Jesus and the Samaritan Woman at the Well. Culture: Southwest German (?). Dimensions: Overall (without frame): 7 1/16 x 8 1/2 in. (18 x 21.6 cm) Framed: 8 1/16 x 9 3/8 x 13/16 in. (20.5 x 23.8 x 2 cm). Date: ca. 1420. This early example of reverse glass painting may have been one of a series with scenes from the life of Jesus. The subject is a rarely depicted episode from the Gospel of John in which Jesus converses with a woman from Samaria. Their encounter was unexpected since, as Saint John said, "Jews do not associate with Samaritans." As a result of their conversation, the woman became convinced that Jesus was the Messiah. The glass panel, originally from an altar or pulpit, was part of a series depicting the life of Christ.
