The need for observing relics - the reconstruction of a romanesque arm reliquary

Aktivitet: Tale eller præsentationForedrag og mundtlige bidrag

Beskrivelse

A romanesque arm reliquary in The National Museum of Denmark was after c. 25 years of use reconstructed in order to see the relic inside through a rock crystal covering a secondary cut hole in the side. The meaning of this alteration is important in understanding the transition in visual veneration and practice.
