PLATE I: STATUE-RELIQUARY OF ST. FOY AT CONQUES (AVEYRON). The statue dates from the mid-tenth century‚ and its outstretched arms once held a model of the iron bed on which she was supposed to have been martyred. It was carried with clashing cymbals through the valleys of the Rouergue whenever the abbey’s lands were threatened.
PLATE II: A. ST. THOMAS APPEARS TO A SLEEPING MONK. Like all saints‚ he was thought to be a conscious being who physically inhabited his shrine. From a stained glass window of Canterbury cathedral (13th. century).
B. A BLEEDING IMAGE OF CHRIST. From a manuscript of Marco Polo’s travels (14th. century). In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, the blood of Christ was venerated in this form in many churches of the Low Countries.
PLATE III: A. A VIEW OF ROME IN 1456. From a manuscript of St. Augustine illuminated by Giacomo Fabriano for a Roman monastery.
B. PILGRIMS PAYING TOLL AT THE GATES OF TYRE (15th. century).
PLATE IV: A. THE ‘SUDARIUM’ OF VERONICA. By an anonymous artist of Cologne (c. 1400). Several hundred representations of the sudarium survive. This one was commissioned by the church of St. Severin in Cologne, and was probably intended to be the door of a reliquary.
B. SHRINE OF THE THREE KINGS IN COLOGNE CATHEDRAL (early 13th. century). The artist, Nicholas of Verdun, was probably trained at St.-Denis in the time of abbot Suger. The shrine was presented by the emperor Otto IV‚ who is depicted on the side, paying homage to the Virgin amd Child.
