Heykel hakkında

This is an ivory plaque made in Cologne in about 1180 representing the Ascension of Christ.

Ivory was used all over Europe for religious works of art. It was often combined with precious metals and usually took the form of relief panels, for book covers, portable altars and caskets. An almost unbroken tradition of ivory carving extends from the Roman and Byzantine empires until the end of the 14th century. From about 1250, Paris became the centre of production for figures and reliefs intended for private devotion.

It was said that the present plaque and another of the Nativity once formed part of the Cologne tabernacle, formerly called the Eltenberg reliquary (7650-1861). It was removed in about 1840 and was replaced in about 1855 with the relief of the journey of the three Magi by Geoffrey Dechaulme which is based on the late-twelfth century relief on the tabernacle in the Kunstgewerbemuseum in Berlin. But this attribution has to be used with caution.
