V. This plaque was originally the third of a set of eight illustrating the Lord's Prayer of which six are in the Fitzwilliam (M.49A-F-1904). The prayer occurs in the Gospels of St Matthew, VI, 9-13 and St Luke, XI, 2-4. 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. This scene, the 'Descent of the Holy Spririt at Pentecost' (Acts of the Apostles, 2, 1-4), illustrates the third line of the Lord’s Prayer, ‘Thy Kingdom come’ (Matthew VI, 10), with the words 'a nous' (to us) added. Five more plaques of the Pentecost scene are recorded. The scenes in the plaques were inspired by 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). They may have been made for a French illustrated edition of Erasmus's book which was not published. While the iconography of all the plaques was derived from these prints, the details differ considerably, in some scenes more than others. The text on the plaques does not exactly follow the French text on the prints in the British Museum. Two Lord's Prayer 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 for plaques in the same style by the presence of the initials CN below the title on a plaque from the Lord’s Prayer 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). Sets of Lord's Prayer plaques are also attributed to Jean II or III Penicaud, and to an enameller who signed 'KIP'. These differ considerably in style and details from Noualher's plaques and include one or two scenes which are completely different from the metalcuts after Holbein. 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 term-109995 adlib-term-109995 14d3bd3d-9589-392f-af47-7df0338ec440 literal Switzerland Switzerland country Basel reference media-136145 adlib-media-136145 edb2e2a5-2f7e-3cc3-a6bb-b1b4d0922b95 jpeg aa/aa20/M_49_1904_202_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 632 1742591887051 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/mid_M_49_1904_202_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 601 width pixels 500 1742591887051 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/M_49_1904_202_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 632 1742591887051 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/preview_M_49_1904_202_20_281_29.jpg 1 height pixels 301 width pixels 250 1742591887051 1 image 0 media image reference media-136146 adlib-media-136146 8a7d68ec-6e00-3cba-9f1f-28650feec9e9 jpeg aa/aa20/M_49_1904_202_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 636 1742591845582 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/mid_M_49_1904_202_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 597 width pixels 500 1742591845582 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/M_49_1904_202_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 760 width pixels 636 1742591845582 1 image jpeg aa/aa20/preview_M_49_1904_202_20_282_29.jpg 1 height pixels 299 width pixels 250 1742591845582 1 image 1 media image reference media-1880620965 portfolio portfolio-media-1880620965 2900af7f-f1bc-37fc-8960-f59e4e52752a jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/236/large_M_49B_1904_1_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529370786000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/236/mid_M_49B_1904_1_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529370786000 1 image M.49B-1904_1_200801_mfj22_mas.tif 1529370786000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/236/preview_M_49B_1904_1_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529370786000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/236/M_49B_1904_1_200801_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 4992 width pixels 3328 1529370786000 1 image 2 media image reference media-693196973 portfolio portfolio-media-693196973 6feca1b0-8689-3160-9ff5-800465c6b6eb jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/242/large_M_49B_1904_2_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1536 width pixels 1024 1529370795000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/242/mid_M_49B_1904_2_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 750 width pixels 500 1529370795000 1 image M.49B-1904_2_200801_mfj22_mas.tif 1529370795000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/242/preview_M_49B_1904_2_200801_mfj22_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 375 width pixels 250 1529370795000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/242/M_49B_1904_2_200801_mfj22_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 4992 width pixels 3328 1529370795000 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).
