The Virgin and Child and the Capture of the Unicorn, 1896
About the object
The glass painting is the largely faithful copy of a pane from the Freiburg Charterhouse, c. 1515/16. It is located in Worms today. The hunt for the mythical unicorn is a common reference to the virginity of Mary as the Blessed Mother.
