medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Thank you, Genevra, both for the shots of the Arian Baptistery and for
that fascinating casket. If it was, indeed, found inside a Marian
reliquary, it would be pretty cheeky to have decorated it with images
based on the Roman de la Rose, and all the pairings seem to include a
praying monk. The larger roundels are fascinating as well. It appears
that in several instances, there are more than one image made from the
same mould.
Cheers,
Jim
