Abstract
Hilary Wayment's discovery in 1983-1984 of a previously unpublished project for a stained glass window at the Kuperstichkabinett in Berlin has shed new light on the stained glass work of Richard Hoesman, a glassmaker banished from the city of Liège in 1533. As Yvette Vanden Bemden had hypothesised, Richard Hoesman is indeed linked to at least the design of three stained glass windows in the choir of the Basilica of Saint-Martin in Liège, donated by Prince-Bishop Érard de La Mark, and a monumental stained glass window on the theme of the Life of Saint Hubert, intended for the church of the former Abbey of Saint-Hubert. These works establish Richard Hoesman as a talented designer at a time when the art of stained glass was embracing the innovations of the Italian Renaissance.
