Sobre a escultura
This figure of St John originally formed part of a Crucifixion group designed as a particular type of European church epitaph. It depicted the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ, flanked by his mother (the Virgin Mary) and St John the Evangelist. St John interceded on behalf of the deceased person, who was commemorated by name on an inscribed tablet, which is still in the church. Beneath the figure of St John is the coat of arms of the Lamparter von Greiffenstein family.
This type of epitaph was a speciality of Gregor Erhart of Augsburg. He was the teacher and uncle of Hans Daucher (died 1538), who made this figure.
