介绍（中）	尽管到十五世纪后期，锡制器皿已经变得足够普遍，以至于曾经推广它们的贵族们都避开了它们，但它们绝不总是被降级为严格的功利主义用途。这个漂亮的旗帜主要用于展览或仪式用途。虽然与西里西亚学校的旗帜有关，特别是在布雷斯劳 - 其中有几个例子现存 - 这个特殊的旗帜带有位于今奥地利南部的菲拉赫镇标志。也有人认为这件作品是在德国北部的吕讷堡制作的，随后在菲拉赫做了标记。无论原产地如何，人物雕刻的高水准（源自大师E.S.的风格），没有磨损，特别是梦幻般的晚期哥特式编织手柄的非实用性，虽然是为饮用而设计的，但通常都陈列在橱柜上。
介绍（英）	Although by the late fifteenth century, pewter vessels had come into sufficiently common usage as to be eschewed by the nobility who had once promoted them, they were by no means always relegated to strict utilitarian usage. This handsome flagon was used primarily for exhibition or ceremonial use. Although of a type related to the flagons of the Silesian school, especially in Breslau - several examples of which are extant - this particular flagon bears the town mark of Villach, located in present-day southern Austria. It has also been suggested that the piece was made in Lüneburg, in northern Germany, and subsequently marked in Villach. Whatever the place of origin, the high qualify of the engraving of the figures (derived in the style from the Master E.S.), the lack of wear, and particularly the nonutilitarian nature of the fantastic late Gothic braided handle, although designed for drinking, was ordinarily displayed on a cupboard.
