摘      要:The iconography and authorship of a reverse-painted glass paten acquired by The Cloisters in 2008 are discussed in this article. The paten, dated 1498, is distinguished by its size, the complexity of its painted decoration, and the technical virtuosity of its execution, all unprecedented at that time. The central image represents the meeting of Abraham and Melchizedek, during which the former offers a tithe and the latter provides bread and wine. In the 15th century, Melchizedek s offering of bread and wine was understood as a prefiguration of the Last Supper. Clearly presented in a sacerdotal context, Melchizedek is dressed in full episcopal vestments, and he signals Christ s sacramental role and the institution of the Eucharist. The scene takes place in a developed landscape;the city in the background is readily recognizable as Landshut. A record in the cathedral of Freising, whose arms are emblazoned on the paten, notes that a Hans from Landshut was paid to paint a glass vessel. This Hans has been identified as Hans Wertinger, but this seems unlikely. The glass painting is the work of an accomplished master, and the style does not accord with Wertinger s only known youthful work of that date.
