Head of an Apostle |

| Object type | sculpture | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description |
This detached head with deeply incised hair was likely that of a large, nearly life-sized figure of an apostle. It would have originally stood more than 6 feet in height and was gilded and painted. The head was formerly affixed to a halo carved from the same block of stone, and the head would have been slightly angled downward. Though its original context is unknown, the style is generally suggestive of sculptural programs in Toulouse during the early 1300s. |
