The Deluge
Description
Русский: Валентин Бош. Витраж "Потоп" из серии "Скрижали завета", 1531 г. Размер: 3,61 x 1,7 м, приобретено Музеем Метрополитен на средства, завещанные фондом Джозефа Пулитцера, 1917. Номер объекта: 17.40.2a–r. Этот витраж вместе с основным витражем "Моисей представляет Скрижали Закона" и пятью другими украшало хоры Бенедиктинского монастыря Св. Фирмина во Флавиньи-сюр-Мозель в Лотарингии. Витраж был выполнен по заказу настоятеля Уори де Люси. Бош отверг традиционное разделение на фрагменты и рассматривал каждую композицию как огромное расписное или выгравированное ретабло в оправе архитектурной рамы «тромплей».
English: "The Deluge" by Valentin Bousch, French, 1531. Medium: Glass, painted and stained. Dimensions: 11 ft. 10 1/4 in. x 5 ft. 7 in. (3.61 x 1.7 m). Credit Line: Joseph Pulitzer Bequest, 1917. Accession Number: 17.40.2a–r. Metropolitan Museum of Art.

This window, together with Moses Presenting the Tablets of the Law (also in the Museum's collection) and five others, decorated the choir of the Benedictine priory church of Saint-Firmin in Flavigny-sur-Moselle, Lorraine. It was commissioned by the prior, Wary de Lucy.

Bousch rejected traditional compartmentalization and instead treated each composition like an enormous painted or carved retable within a trompe-l'oeil architectural frame.
Deutsch: Die Sintflut. Valentin Bousch, 1531. Glas, bemaltes Buntglas. Abmessungen: 3,61 x 1,7 m. Anerkennung: Neuerwerb, aus dem Nachlass von Joseph Pulitzer, 1917, Metropolitan Museum. Inventarnummer: 17.40.2a–r. Dieses Fenster zierte, gemeinsam mit Moses präsentiert die Gesetzestafeln und fünf anderen, den Chor der Benediktiner-Klosterkirche von Saint-Firmin in Flavigny-sur-Moselle, Lothringen. Es wurde von dem Klostervorsteher Wary de Lucy in Auftrag gegeben. Bousch lehnte die traditionelle Gliederung ab und behandelte stattdessen jede Komposition wie ein gigantisches Gemälde oder einen gehauenen Altaraufsatz innerhalb eines im Trompe-l'Oeil-Stil angefertigten architektonischen Rahmens.

L’ensemble avait été commandé par le prieur, Wary de Lucy. Il rejeta le compartimentage traditionnel, préférant traiter chaque composition comme un énorme retable peint ou sculpté à l’intérieur d’un cadre architectonique en trompe-l’œil.
