Description
A carved wood relief in deep, almost three-dimensional style with a Biblical scene. It depicts “Susanna and the Elders”, a classic Biblical example of divinely accorded punishment befalling the wicked act of lasciviousness and false accusations. This plaque was probably part of a large series of similar pieces with didactic subject matter that served as the visual part of religious education for young and older persons in the Old Testament. Size: 10 ¼ x 13 1/8” in a period original frame.
