Works of art in enamel are among the most attractive, colourful and revealing objects of the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Enamel was employed to embellish a broad array of objects, including reliquary caskets, crosses, book-covers, croziers, censers and pyxes for the church and a wide range of tableware for the secular market. The Wyvern Collection comprises many pieces of prime importance from the twelfth to the sixteenth centuries.
With more than 250 objects, all specially photographed, this volume studies an especially rich part of one of the greatest private collections. It offers a detailed and authoritative guide to medieval and Renaissance enamels and other works of art.
