RecordMisericord< 1 of 1 > Back From the South of Scotland
MisericordA misericord is a bracket on the underside of the seat of a choir stall. When the seat is raised it helps support a standing cleric. This late-15th-century example is made of oak. It possibly comes from the south of Scotland. The deeply carved misericord depicts the Adoration of the Magi. The Magi are the 'three wise men' from the East referred to in the Book of Matthew in the New Testament. Record detailsTo search on related items, click any linked text below.
