About the Item
Saint Christopher. Jet. Spanish School, 16th century.
A carving showing a male figure standing on a base and carrying a child on his shoulders. Saint Christopher of Lycia, best known thanks to the spread of the Golden Legend by James of the Voragine from the 13th century onwards, was best known for having crossed a river with Christ disguised as a child on his shoulders. Compare this work with the 16th-century jet-carved Saint James with Pilgrims in the Cathedral Museum of Ávila (Spain), the examples in the Valencia Museum of Don Juan (Madrid), etc.

Saint on a bed. Polychromed wood. Flemish school, 16th century.
Located in Madrid, ES
Dream of a saint. Carved and polychrome wood. Flemish school, 16th century.
Relief made of carved and polychrome wood that shows an old man with a particular headdress (reminiscent of some chaperones) lying on a bed and accompanied by two friars dressed in habits, who talk to each other. Iconographically, the figure of the old man lying on the bed (note the cushion that raises the upper part of the body, following the common use of the time) who has not died (probably) because he was not completely lying down, is reminiscent of how he was usually represented, for example, to San Antón, San Jerónimo, etc. It is not very likely that it is the subject of the Transit or Death of Saint Francis of Assisi due to the absence of the Stigmata and due to age. It would be part of a cycle of scenes in the altarpiece of a church, an accompaniment that would give the viewer more clues about the identity of those represented.
