Bust of Saint Frederick, Elias Scerpswert, 1362 Canvas Print

Reliquary for part of the skull of St. Fredericus, driven, partially gilded and standing on a border of open tracing. The shoulders are lined with a chasuble, on which driven tendril ornament and birds on a punched ground. Above it he wears the amict, decorated with dragons and tendrils in relief. The wide-protruding curls, which enclose the entire head, are arranged symmetrically on the sides. The stubble beard is indicated by light engraving. On the head, which has a round opening in the crown, a loose miter is placed with symmetrical motifs in open tracing. Behind it are clamps visible, in which probably a ground of émail was contained. The points on the front and back have a finial as a crowning, on which a gemstone is probably attached. At the bottom, the reliquary is closed by a flat plate, on which in Gothic letters the inscription: '+ano dni mo ccco lxiio decan' + captm sti saluator tiecten / me ex tuba // ptut innovaca exhi + fi' fecerut p elya / scerpswert aurifabru'.
