Copper gilt pyx, mid 15th century?, (1881). Creator: M Sullivan

Copper gilt pyx, mid 15th century?, (1881). Etching of a hexagonal pyx (container for the host used in the Eucharist), possibly made in England, Germany, or Flanders. The shape echoes a shrine or lantern. The twelve apostles are depicted in pairs, and the whole is surmounted by a cockerel. From " The South Kensington Museum", a book of engraved illustrations, with descriptions, of the works of art in the collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London (formerly known as the South Kensington Museum). [Sampson Low, Marston, Searle and Rivington, London, 1881]
