サン・ティリエの聖遺物を納めた胸像

ca. 1220–40, with later grill
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 304
この聖遺物容器には、6世紀にリモージュの南の町に修道院を開いたサン・ティリエの頭蓋骨が収められていました。この修道院は現在彼の名が付けられています。中世のリモージュ地方では、地元の聖人の頭の形をした聖遺物容器を崇拝するようになり、その信仰は今でも続いています。祝日には頭像が行列行進で町中を練り歩き、教会の祭壇に置かれて信者に拝まれました。貴金属の素材が聖人の高貴な容貌を思い起こさせ、納められていた頭蓋骨が永遠の権威を伝えました。
