Christ teaching the disciples how to pray, inscribed below, 'IHESVS• DICT•A•SES•DISEIPSIES QVANT/VOVS PRIEREZ HE PARSEZ: PAS•BEAV:/COP MAIS PRIEZ AMSY (sprig) MAT V'1. One of a set with M.49B-F-1904 Rectangular copper convex plaque with a small hole in each corner, enamelled in grisaille with a little flesh pink on a black round, and gilded. Clear, unevenly applied clear counter-enamel. Christ stands on a flat rock on the right addressing his disciples who stand slightly below him in a group on the left. He is barefooted, and has a gold aureole, long hair, and a beard, and wears a long gown with a cloak over it. The first disciple on the left, probably St Peter, is old and bearded, and wears a long gown with a cloak which he holds up in his right hand and clutches to his chest with his left hand. The disciple behind him, probably St John, is younger and clean-shaven with golden hair, and wears a long gown and cloak fastened together over his chest with a brooch. The head of another disciple is shown behind him, but only the tops of the heads of the rest of the group behind them are shown. A large tree stands in the background between Christ and the disciples. Gold lines run round the edges of their clothing, and there are small gold plants on the rock and beyond the tree, which is entwined by a delicate gold vine. A white panel running across the bottom of the plaque is inscribed in black with gilding over it ‘IHESVS• DICT•A•SES•DISEIPSIES QVANT/VOVS PRIEREZ HE PARSEZ: PAS•BEAV:/COP MAIS PRIEZ AMSY (sprig) MAT V1’ (Jesus said to his disciples ‘When you pray do not speak too much but pray thus’ Matthew V1) . A gold line runs round the edge of the scene and inscription. The reverse is painted in black with the number ‘1’. The plaque is set in an ill-fitting, rectangular, gilt-metal frame with repeating formal leaf border. The plaque is held into the frame by four bent over pins attached to the cardinal points on the reverse. reference exhibition-2107 adlib-exhibition-2107 07086265-735b-3fd0-90c6-7b1c4f93cb94 Fitzwilliam Museum, McClean Bequest, Catalogue of the Mediaeval Ivories, Enamels, Jewellery, Gems and Miscellaneous Objects Bequeathed to the Museum By Frank McClean, M.A., F.R.S.

V. This plaque was originally the first of a set of eight illustrating the Lord's Prayer of which six are in the Fitzwilliam (M.49A-F-1904). The second and fourth plaques are missing. The first plaque shows Christ instructing his disciples how to pray (Matthew, VI, 6-7), and the others have scenes associated with the lines of the Lord's Prayer which follows (Matthew, VI, 8-13). The words are written in French at the bottom of each plaque. The subject of the first plaque is shown out-of-doors, because this passage in the Gospel forms part of the Sermon on the Mount. So far no documentary evidence for the use of the plaques has been found. However, it seems likely that framed sets could have been used as teaching aids. Their production needs to be viewed in the context of efforts by evangelical Protestant and Gallican Catholic reformers to improve the religious education of the clergy and laity. Learning to repeat and understand the Lord's Prayer was a fundamental aspect of Christian education. The publication of Luther’s commentaries on the Creed and Lord’s Prayer in 1518 and 1519 inspired a spate of comparable works, ranging from learned works for scholars to simple pamphlets with the Lord's Prayer, Creed, and Hail Mary printed in Latin and French for the laity. The scenes on the enamelled Lord's Prayer plaques were derived from a set of metalcuts by the Basel monogrammist C.V. after Holbein which appeared in Desiderio Erasmus's 'Precatio dominica in septem portiones', published by both Johann Froben and Johannes Bebel successively in Basle in 1524. The work was first published without illustrations in 1523, and was rapidly translated into modern languages. The illustrations in the Froben and Bebel editions have the inscriptions in Latin, but a set of eight prints issued separately a little later with inscriptions in French, signed CV, is in the British Museum (1904,0206. 64.1-8;) and seven of the set (no. 4 is missing) are in the Cabinet des Estampes, Bibliothèque nationale, Paris (EA 25c in fol., p. 57). A French translation of 'Precation dominica' was not published, and the rarity of the prints with French text, makes it seem more likely that Colin Nouailher, had access to an illustrated Latin edition. The inscriptions on the plaques attributed to him do not match all lines of the cuts with French text. While the iconography of all the plaques was derived from these prints, the details differ considerably, in some scenes more than others, and the sets by by Jean Pénicaud II or III and the enameller who signed 'KIP' include scenes which are completely different. Only five sets of grisaille Lord's Prayer plaques surviving together are known, of which two are attributed to Colin Nouailher, and about thirty-five in smaller groups or single plaques are in his style, which differs greatly from the other sets attributed to Jean Pénicaud II or III and 'KIP'. Two plaques in the Louvre were attributed to Colin Nouailher by Alfred Darcel (1867) and his attribution was upheld by J.J. Marquet de Vasselot (1919-20) and Sophie Baratte (2000). This attribution was confirmed by the presence of the initials CN below the title on a plaque decorated with the 'Deliver us from Evil' scene, acquired by the Musée de l’Évêché, (now Musée des Beaux-Arts) Limoges, in 2007 (2007.5.2) with another plaque of the 'Give us our daily bread' scene (2007.5.1). reference term-110475 adlib-term-110475 223ae6a7-2f91-3314-ae3c-da3233ae47dc 16th Century, Mid reference term-15498 adlib-term-15498 61725bf5-360f-3837-8aab-3c90b956a537 literal France France country literal Haute Vienne Haute Vienne region Limoges reference media-136143 adlib-media-136143 1bf1e107-5aa4-37a1-a544-9d74c4799453 jpeg aa/aa20/M_49_1904_201_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 628 1742591837278 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/mid_M_49_1904_201_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 605 width pixels 500 1742591837278 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/M_49_1904_201_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 628 1742591837278 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/preview_M_49_1904_201_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 303 width pixels 250 1742591837278 1 image 0 media image reference media-136144 adlib-media-136144 42178319-91fb-3ac0-8c77-23782b1d9452 jpeg aa/aa20/M_49_1904_201_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 641 1742591864767 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/mid_M_49_1904_201_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 593 width pixels 500 1742591864767 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/M_49_1904_201_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 641 1742591864767 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/preview_M_49_1904_201_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 296 width pixels 250 1742591864767 1 image 1 media image reference media-3327292119 portfolio portfolio-media-3327292119 3a2772db-228e-38e8-a5c0-96079572d6a1 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/234/large_M_49A_1904_1_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529370785000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/234/mid_M_49A_1904_1_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529370785000 1 image M.49A-1904_1_200801_mfj22_mas.tif 1529370785000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/234/preview_M_49A_1904_1_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529370785000 1 image 2 media image reference media-2001916457 portfolio portfolio-media-2001916457 6abe1a7a-63c7-3f49-b61c-85b62a768427 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/235/large_M_49A_1904_2_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529370786000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/235/mid_M_49A_1904_2_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529370786000 1 image M.49A-1904_2_200801_mfj22_mas.tif 1529370786000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/235/preview_M_49A_1904_2_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529370786000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/235/M_49A_1904_2_200801_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 4992 width pixels 3328 1529370786000 1 image 3 media image reference term-107484 adlib-term-107484 935e21d3-0b7f-3ca6-9987-b79c82e054fd plaque history note Uncertain; possibly Robert Napier, West Shandon, Dunbartonshire by 1865; sold Christie’s, 5 June, 1877, part of lot 2594; sold to Stettiner (probably Henri).
