Der Welfenschatz: der Reliquienschatz des Braunschweiger Domes aus dem Besitze des herzogischen Hauses Braunschweig-Lüneburg

Falke, Otto von [Hrsg.] · 1930 · 134 pictures

A 1930 German catalogue edited by Otto von Falke, documenting the Welf Treasury, a medieval reliquary hoard of the Braunschweig cathedral once owned by the ducal house of Brunswick-Lüneburg, for art historians and collectors. The four pictures are rotated scans of gilt and enamelled reliquary objects: a domed casket with rows of arched figures and a rim of bosses, and two long book-shaped reliquary panels with inscribed Latin text, winged figures and interlace bands, giving designers medieval ornament, arcade framing and inscription lettering to adapt.
