It is gilded, incised and painted in red, blue and green, probably using an oil medium, along the foliate border which frames the two scenes. The Enthroned Virgin and Child are flanked by four figures, two at either side. The Virgin’s throne is rather monumental, surmounted by a gable and two pinnacles. The Child is represented holding a small orb. A smaller Annunciation is decorated in a pseudo-predella at the bottom of the panel. The borders of the panel are ornate with swirls of foliage, alternatively painted in red and green. The wooden frame (A) has gesso additions and is painted and gilded. The frame is carved along the two long sides with foliate motifs. On the top, the frame is sculpted with the figures of God the Father directly above the Man of Sorrow, and flanked by the Annunciate Angel at the left and the Virgin at the right. At the bottom, the frame ends with a reverse triangle terminating with a decorated knob.

What is almost certainly the original frame, dated 1347, is in the Museum of Fine Art, Cleveland, Ohio (accession no. 1978.26). Previously dated c. 1345-50, the date of 1347 was agreed in 2024 upon following conversations between Professor Joanna Cannon and Dr Beth Williamson, who discusses the Fitzwilliam glass in her essay in the exhibition catalogue: In 1981, the panel was conclusively linked with the reliquary frame now in the Cleveland Museum of Art by Dillian Gordon, who recognised that the dimensions of the glass and the frame’s aperture matched precisely. She also showed that the tabernacle was originally commissioned for the hospital of Santa Maria della Scala in Siena, something reflected in the inscription of the frame but also the iconography of the glass’ decoration. This frame’s extensive inscription also provides the date of 1347. Given that the Fitzwilliam verre eglomisé and the frame were originally part of the same object, the date of 1347 was agreed by Professor Cannon and Dr Williamson as representing more precisely the moment of the creation of both elements. 1347 production reference agent-149652 adlib-agent-149652 0d4f90dc-b166-3d4b-b0db-25f4118b6e98 Unknown G.M.
