Crucifixion in Pendant Frame

$6.00$7.00

The Crucifixion in Pendant Frame is copied from an example in the van Beuningen collection. Its use of interchangeable parts (other inserts which would fit in a frame of the identical size also survive) is a clue to the enormous number of cheap religious souvenirs and devotional objects which were made throughout the 14th and 15th centuries.
