Münsterbauhütte, Freiburg
St Christopher, um 1365
About the object
The southern choir portal of the Freiburg Minster was completed around 1360/70 just before the extensive hiatus between periods of building, which lasted approximately 100 years. The figure of St Christopher faces sideways. The figure of the standing Virgin with child forms its counterpart. Copies now replace the originals in their positions in the Minster.
