Esmaltes com a crucificação e símbolos dos evangelistas

ca. 1100

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 304

O abade Begon III (r. 1087–1107) encomendou obras de arte preciosas para seu monastério em Conques. Acredita-se que uma delas seja este conjunto identificado por sua técnica, estilo e colorido incomum e provavelmente procedente de uma capa de livro. Em cada peça, o ourives sobrepôs duas placas de cobre; a inferior com cloisons (fios) que delimitam as feições e os trajes, e a superior cortada para definir as silhuetas das figuras e da cruz.
