Saint Dionysus

City church St.Dionysius Esslingen
Saint Dionysus
from the Steinhövel window, Speyer 1280

The church is here dedicated to the Bishop of Paris, because it belonged to the monastery St.Denis (Dionys) from 777-1213. Dionysus is shown throned above the donors. On his knees next to the saint is a man identified by a Banderol as Lampertus, in whose workshop in Speyer these first choir windows were made ca.1280.
