This stunning Neo-Gothic gilt brass monstrance dates from the 19th century and exemplifies the grandeur of the Napoleon III style. The monstrance features intricate Gothic architectural details, crowned with a cross and embellished with detailed miniature statues of Jesus at the top, the Virgin Mary on the left, and Saint Joseph on the right. These symbolic figures emphasize the sacred nature of the piece thanks to the reunion of the Holy Family.
