Choir of St. Egidien with the two epitaphs
Epitaph of Bishop Christoph von Stadion, who died on April 15, 1543, at the Diet of Nuremberg. Attributed to the Labenwolf workshop by Sven Hauschke. "Some of the ornamental elements of the gravestone from Meßkirch are related to the two meticulously cast epitaphs for Bishop Christoph von Stadion (d. 1543) in St. Giles' Church in Nuremberg. The upper inscription cartouche, the childlike heads of the winged sirens in the pilaster panels, and the crest figures of the coats of arms in Meßkirch can be compared with the tendrils of the inscription cartouche's border and the small heads of the crucifixion figures in St. Giles' Church. These two slabs have been attributed to Hans Vischer, but the form of the two epitaphs, the ornamentation, the facial features, and the fabric pattern of the curtain behind the crucifixion cannot be linked to any other work from the Vischer workshop. An origin in the Labenwolf workshop seems more likely to me." These two slabs have been attributed to Hans Vischer, but the form of the two epitaphs, the ornamentation, the facial features, and the fabric pattern of the curtain behind the crucifixion cannot be associated with any other work from the Vischer workshop.
