Silver Pax O Portapaz, Spain, 16th Century
Located in Madrid, ES
Portapaz. Silver in its color and gilded. Century XVI.
Portapaz made of silver that has a handle (decorated with delicate plant motifs similar to those of the pilasters) and a female and a male bust at the bottom, as well as other architectural elements on the back, and, on the front, an architectural composition classicist basement (with busts flanking a flower and a cross), two pilasters (vegetal decoration and capital recalling the composite order) with entablature (flowers flanking an angel's head; moldings), and a semicircular arch finish with elements veined in relief under cross and flanked by two architectural motifs in the upper part. This composition frames and enhances a gilt silver relief where you can see the Lament or Cry over the Body of Christ, with the Virgin holding the head of Jesus, Saint John at her side, the Magdalene and other characters, a cross following the group and a landscape background with houses and plant elements. This architectural structure mentioned is similar to the one present in other 16th century portapaces, such as that of the Magdalena de Dos Hermanas parish (Hernando de Ballesteros el Mozo, around 1575); or that of the Galaroza parish (same author and date); or that of the portapaz of San Miguel de Jerez de los Caballeros (in some details); etc. As for the relief, it is possible to clearly see a strong Italian influence, and the similarity between it and important pieces such as the Portapaz known as “de Cisneros by Juan de Burgos (1493-1497; MuseoCatedralicio de Alcalá de Henares), as well as in paintings and reliefs. Also noteworthy are both the male and female busts in the lower area and the Maltese cross (or Saint John's) that appears in this area. This symbol was used since the 12th century as an insignia by the Knights Hospitallers of the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem, also known as the Order of Malta...

Altarpiece Reliquary with Oil on Table, Rosewood, Luis De Morales, 16th Century
By Luis de Morales
Located in Madrid, ES
LUIS DE MORALES (Spain, 1512-1586).
The Virgin with a book, the Sleeping Child and Saint John.
Oil on panel. Altarpiece with relics may be related to The Royal Site of San Lorenzo de El Escorial.
Published: Mateo Gómez, Isabel. Revista de Estudios Extremeños, 2018, Tomo LXXIV, Nº. II, pp. 1115-1128.
Table with the Virgin of a little more than half body, sitting on a bench and leaning on a table, reading with the sleeping child on her lap; on the right, a Saint
John appears from behind the bench and puts a finger to his mouth asking for silence so as not to disturb Jesus' sleep. The oil is framed by a reliquary altar in
ebony wood: flanked by two fluted columns with Corinthian capital and based, located on a base with the relics (read their signs from left to right, they host those of San Silvestre, San Felipe Apóstol, San Felipe Neri, San Antonio Abad, Santa María Magdalena, Santo Sepulcro de Nuestro Señor and Santa Clara) on canvas and framed by ovals with silver rings; the upper end is decorated, in the frieze and top of the tympanum, with silver ovals with colored agates, and topped by pinnacles with bronze balls.
Isabel Mateo has analyzed both elements: the table was painted by Luis de Morales, nicknamed "the Divine" (Badajoz, h. 1510-1586), and places it in the last stage of the painter, created for private devotion. In his analysis he highlights the similarities with other works of the painter: "Virgin with the Child and the Holy Juanes" of the parish church of Valencia de Alcántara (Cáceres) dated between 1550-1560; the “Virgins with hats” from the Abelló Collection and the Prado Museum in Madrid; etc. Furthermore, he refers to the flamenco iconographic influences and Rafael's models in Morales' work, among others.
As for the reliquary, added later to the completion of the painting, it relates it to El Escorial and Felipe II...

16th Century Spanish or Italian Baroque Wrought Iron Nails and Furniture Mounts
Located in Stamford, CT
Group of 16th century (or earlier, possibly Gothic) Spanish or Italian wrought iron furniture mounts. These hand-wrought bosses and nails show incredible workmanship. These would have been used to decorate - and to structurally hold together an early chest or casket. The four geometric bosses beautifully made, eight ounces each without the nail! The nails are works of art in themselves, with their heavy geometric heads.
Also two round bosses with the nail integral to the piece, one a mushroom form, the other like a parasol. And a single hand-wrought double sided nail. Great group of early iron.
Provenance: Frances Pratt, Writer, Artist, Collector. New York City.
Approximate sizes:
4 bosses 4.625 inches square 11.75 cm
Round bosses 3 inches diameter the larger 2.5 the smaller 7.6/ 6.35 cm

Tabernacle Door, Wood, Metal, 16th Century
Located in Madrid, ES
This type of elements are basic in churches, chapels, etc. since they contain the Sacred Forms, reason why it is logical the abundance, with a series of typologies more habitual and traditional or old than others. There are also iconographies more common than others, a certain thematic preference according to the date or school to which the work belongs, etc., always related to the Sacrifice of Christ, Salvation, Transubstantiation, Eucharist, etc. for being a key element for Christianity (especially the Catholic) what they will always contain.
The present work shows a chalice with Sacred Form in what would originally be the interior of the door (very usual iconography) and a somewhat more striking relief to the exterior. Inside that it is a Eucharistic Christ or Eucharistic Savior, the way of presenting it is more usual of the scenes of the Last Supper, being not so frequent to find it alone like this. Compare for example with works such as the door of the tabernacle attributed to Alonso Cano...
