Here, too, the cycle begins at the top left (in the east, where the sun rises) with the parents of Mary: Joachim and Anna, the birth of Mary unfortunately destroyed, but clearly to be seen: the passage to the temple of Mary, the marriage and, in the far west, the birth of Christ. The flight to Egypt can be seen particularly clearly, including the large picture: the death of Mary.

The representation of the ten commandments is special, but unfortunately difficult to read due to the two whitewashing.
