Hans Noll, one of the pioneers of Swiss glazing, was active in Bern from the 1470s until his death in 1493. His style was deeply indebted to the influence of Martin Schongauer. Probably the son of Peter Noll, a blacksmith, Noll served as a member of the Great Council in 1475. As a glass painter, he was active in Bern and Solothurn. He provided windows for the Premonstratensian Abbey of Gottstatt in the canton of Bern, and in the city of Bern he made windows for the Franciscan Abbey and cathedral (Hasler, 2009; Kurmann-Schwarz, 1998, pp. 368–69, 407–414, 453–54, 470–71, esp. 495–97).
