Panel from a Triptych with Bishop Saint
Not on view
The technique of punched dots (opus punctorium) to create a composition originated with goldsmith work and in many respects is a precursor to the art of engraving. Originally forming a triptych, the attendant Bishop saint may associate this devotional object with a specific city such as Cologne or Mainz.
