True to God and King: Alabaster Heads of St. John in Late Medieval England / Alabaster Heads of St. John in Late Medieval England

Sculpted alabaster tablets depicting the head of St. John the Baptist on a charger, such as the Spilsbury alabaster now in the collection of the University of Victoria's Maltwood Museum and Gallery, were produced in large numbers in fifteenth-century England. Important as examples of private devotional art, they were probably first made as minor works subsidiary to alabaster monument and altarpiece production. / Graduate / 0377
