Text Appearing Before Image:
se. The pillowed head, high-ruffed and fil-leted, with its sweet face, the lightly folded hands,the faintly outlined form under the soft draperies,all make it a thing of everlasting beauty, probablythe most beautiful tomb of its type in Italy. It atleast vies with the Guidarelli monument in Ravennafor this distinction. Luccas most celebrated relic, the wooden VoltoSanto, is inclosed in an elaborate small tabernacle orchapel (near the middle of the left aisle), callec^TlTempietto, which was specially built for it by MatjfeoCivitali. The relic is an ornamented wooden cross,with a face of Christ painted on it. The face is astrange one, strongly suggestive of Byzantine origin,or at least influence. It is kept veiled in its shrine, ex-cept on certain rare occasions. The myth accountingfor the existence and presence here of the relic ac-credits its making partly to the hand of St. Nicode-mus, and partly to some divine interference, and in-cludes a curious tale of its travels and adventures.
Text Appearing After Image:
Lucca 335 After its making it lay long hidden, till in 782 aPiedmontese bishop found it by means of a vision, andput it aboard ship and abandoned it to the sea. Cast
