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.referenceterm-110062adlib-term-110062e26bc6b6-1f3a-36cf-a285-f33465265a5d13th Century, Earlyreferenceterm-10603adlib-term-1060309088083-a78d-3d70-9f4f-343b5c3283d7Medievalreferenceterm-15498adlib-term-1549861725bf5-360f-3837-8aab-3c90b956a537literalFranceFrancecountryliteralHaute-VienneHaute-VienneregionLimogesreferencemedia-592159108portfolio-media-592159108599185d7-d06e-308d-b734-d4af9fde7154jpegportfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/136/large_M_31_1904_mas.jpg1heightpixels1341widthpixels102415293706400001imagejpegportfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/136/mid_M_31_1904_mas.jpg1heightpixels655widthpixels50015293706400001imageM.31-1904_mas.tif152937064000011imagejpegportfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/136/preview_M_31_1904_mas.jpg1heightpixels327widthpixels25015293706400001imagepyramid tiffportfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/505/136/M_31_1904_mas.ptif1heightpixels5519widthpixels421515293706400001image0media
