The female figures in our painting bear a resemblance to those in the 1515 triptych executed by Bockstorffer for the cemetery chapel at Engelberg, or the 1516 triptych in St Peter’s Church at Will near St Gallen (see ‘Das Triptychon von 1524 in der Konradi Kapelle des Münster zu Konstaz und die Christoph Bockstorffer-frage’, in *Jahrbuch der Staatlichen Kunstsammlungen in Baden-Württemberg*, vol. 25, 1988, pp. 54–84, figs. 9, 15).
