Description

High Middle Ages. This is likely a reliquary bust; a holy relic once accompanied our holy man. As one of the oldest pieces in the collection, we can forgive its imperfections and missing parts due to its great age. Despite its wear and tear, one can appreciate the finesse of its carving and the benevolent demeanor of this man of the Church.
Clad in the miter—the most solemn headdress in the Church—he exudes the splendor of holiness. This is why we refer to him here as a holy bishop. A 15th-century work carved in the round from wood.
Shows signs of wear and old worm damage. The wood is sound.
Dimensions: 54 cm by 28 cm
