The relief depicting the Entry into Jerusalem was added to the Sebaldus Passion Cycle at a later date. The maker's mark is that of Veit Wirsberger, as seen on the Pappenheim Altarpiece in Eichstätt. Therefore, the coat of arms is not that of the Flextorf family, who had already died out by 1493 when Wirsberger acquired Nuremberg citizenship, but rather that of the Welser family.
