A pair of lancet panels showing Saint Peter and Saint Philip

c. 1300
Germany
63.5 x 24 cm; stained glass.

Two large lancet panels depicting Saints Peter and Philip standing at full-length against a lapis-blue backdrop. Saint Peter is represented with a short curling beard holding the key and book with which he is typically identified, while Saint Philip is identifiable from his attribute of the double cross. Likely once part of a larger set of panels depicting the Twelve Apostles, the figures are marked by a fine rendering of their hair and beards and the folds of their drapery.
