This 14th-century iron, silver, and enamel reliquary cross once sheltered a fragment of wood believed to come from the True Cross (I'd need a very large grain of salt . . . but so they claimed). It was a gift to the Met from J. Pierpont Morgan—I showed another one here on my other blog recently. [To see more Sunday shadows, go here.] |
& don't they have another with a piece of Mary Magdalene's tooth in it too?
