Classification: Enamels-Cloisonné
Credit Line: Gift of J. Pierpont Morgan, 1917

Description:
This plaque is one of the earliest known examples of the cloisonné-enamel technique in the West.

The plaque originally would have been accompanied by another, with an image of the sun, both probably framing a large crucifix.
