For an iconographic description, please see 2005.02.092. This small plaque is similar in composition to the painted version of the same theme in this exhibition, except that the younger, beardless saint here appears in the foreground. The figure of Christ is abbreviated to show only the hands. The enameling displays blue and white for the sky and clouds, with yellow stars.
