Papal Paperolles Reliquary With A Representation Of Mary Magdalene - 18th Century

I called this work a congregation, Papal because so many distinct relics of popes is exceptional in a reliquary.

A large central medallion presenting a gouache on vellum of Mary Magdalene is surrounded by 12 ex-ossibus relics.
Thus, accompanying our Holy Woman, are the following saints: Saint Boniface, Martyr Saint Clair Saint Vital, Martyr Saint Innocent, Pope Saint Vincent Saint Denis Saint Saturnin, Martyr Saint Marcellus, Pope Saint Felix, Pope Saint Bonaventure Saint Urban, Pope Saint Euaristus

At the four corners of this reliquary are other important papal relics, also ex-ossibus, of Pope Saint Clement, of Pope and Martyr Saint Martin, of Saint Victor pope and martyr and finally of Saint Pontian, pope and martyr who died of mistreatment in the salt mines of Sardinia in the 3rd century.

Undeniably, a collector's piece, of quality and in beautiful condition, in its original gilded and carved frame.

Dimensions of 36 cm by 30.
