Polke stained-glass windows in the Grossmünster
The twelve-part work – up close
Sigmar Polke’s unique stained-glass windows in the Grossmünster take us on a journey through time. Seven windows made of agate carvings, featuring stone engravings, represent the early days of creation. Five figurative windows depict Old Testament figures who point towards Christ.
