[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4932259, member: 2844"]She is beautiful. The hairstyle looks late 15th century to me, so slightly later than the bust of Eleonora of Aragon. But as you said, it could have been made at a later date. When a church acquired a new relic, sometimes literally new, a new reliquary had to be made. There was also the Historic Revival of the 19th century, when many copies were made for collectors. Tagging [USER=1476]@Debora[/USER] .:)[/QUOTE]
