The Galerie Le Jardin Des Moines offers you a Hunt from the Sainte Ursula Society.
A beautiful receptacle resting on four ball feet, honors a distinguished relic of the Saint Ursula society, from which it emanates a certain softness and serenity.
In painted and gilded wood, on a bed of roses and carnations, it houses a leader of the eleven thousand Virgins of the company of Saint Ursula. The latter is surrounded by a crown of flowers in tender pastel colors
On the back, attesting to the sacredness of this relic, are nine wax seals. Six of them represent two keys of Saint Peter placed in a saltire and topped with a tiara with the papal inscription: “servus servorum Dei tu es Petrus”. This is the official seal of the Vatican, giving additional spiritual value to this remarkable piece.
The three central ones are older and bear the arms of a bishop.
Dimensions of 38 cm wide by 40 cm high by 27 cm deep.
