Virgin and Child from Limoges in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, September 2018
Virgin and Child
ca. 1200
Object Details
Date: ca. 1200
Geography: Made in Limoges, France
Culture: French
Medium: Copper: formed, repoussé, engraved, chased, scraped, and gilt; hands cast; champlevé enamel: dark, medium, and light blue; turquoise, green, yellow, red, and white; glass cabochons; wood core
Dimensions: Overall: 14 3/16 x 4 13/16 x 4 5/8 in. (36 x 12.3 x 11.7 cm)
Classification: Enamels-Champlevé
Credit Line: Gift of J. Pierpont Morgan, 1917
Accession Number: 17.190.125a, b
The enameled book and the engraving of the Virgin’s crown and slippers and of the Child’s hair are characteristic of Limoges work. Enamels of the type for which Limoges was famous are often preserved in Spain, and, indeed, this work belonged to a Spanish collector in the late nineteenth century. In Spain, neither political revolution nor religious reformation provoked the mass destruction of church property that France experienced.
