When heated this fused to become level with the divisions formed by the edges of the ‘fields’. The surface was then polished. The resulting images have bold linear modelling, and jewel-like colours. Early examples had gilded backgrounds, but by the thirteenth century blue predominated. The hands, feet and faces of figures were sometimes made separately, and were attached by means of rivets. The matching gable end, formerly in the Keir Collection, is in the Thomson Collection in the Art Gallery of Ontario, in Toronto (2003/1325). It has an inscription from Psalm 33: 21: CVSTODIT D[OMI]N[V]S OMIA OSSA S[AN]C[T]OR[VM] The Lord keeps all the bones of the saints. reference term-110062 adlib-term-110062 e26bc6b6-1f3a-36cf-a285-f33465265a5d 13th Century, Early reference term-10603 adlib-term-10603 09088083-a78d-3d70-9f4f-343b5c3283d7 Medieval reference term-15498 adlib-term-15498 61725bf5-360f-3837-8aab-3c90b956a537 literal France France country literal Haute-Vienne Haute-Vienne region Limoges reference media-592159108 portfolio portfolio-media-592159108 599185d7-d06e-308d-b734-d4af9fde7154 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/136/large_M_31_1904_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1341 width pixels 1024 1529370640000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/136/mid_M_31_1904_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 655 width pixels 500 1529370640000 1 image M.31-1904_mas.tif 1529370640000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/136/preview_M_31_1904_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 327 width pixels 250 1529370640000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/136/M_31_1904_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 5519 width pixels 4215 1529370640000 1 image 0 media image reference media-4088570419 portfolio portfolio-media-4088570419 795110b3-a7cb-3bf7-afad-aa5541217809 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/627/662/large_M_31_1904_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 1267 width pixels 1024 1550049096000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/627/662/mid_M_31_1904_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 619 width pixels 500 1550049096000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/627/662/M_31_1904_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 5186 width pixels 4191 1550049096000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/627/662/preview_M_31_1904_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 309 width pixels 250 1550049096000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/627/662/M_31_1904_dc1.ptif 1 height pixels 5186 width pixels 4191 1550049096000 1 image 1 media image reference term-107484 adlib-term-107484 935e21d3-0b7f-3ca6-9987-b79c82e054fd plaque pentagonal plaque history note Louis-Fidel Debruge-Duménil (1788-1838), Paris; sold Paris, Bonnefons de Lavialle, commissaire-priseur, 23 January - 9 February and 4-12 March, 1850, Catalogue des objets d’art qui composent la collection Debruge Duménil, p. 75, lot 81; Lord Hastings; Christie, Manson & Woods, 20 March 1888, Catalogue of majolica, Palissy ware, German stoneware, Limoges enamels, the property of The Right Hon.
