Title
Section of a Chancel Barrier (?)
Description
English: This sculptural fragment was probably part of a church chancel barrier that separated the congregation from the altar; the groove on the left side would have held one side of a wooden or stone screen. It is carved with grapes, grape leaves, and a bird eating grapes, very similar to the ornament on the 8th-century Theodota sarcophagus from Pavia (the capital of the Langobardic kingdom).
  • This style, which has no parallels in earlier Langobardic art, betrays strong Byzantine influence.
