Medieval Treasures from the Hildesheim Exhibition

A liturgical fan from the Medieval Treasures from the Hildesheim exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City. From Hildesheim Cathedral for ceremonially fanning the altar. Made with gilded copper alloy, rock crystal, and semiprecious stones, the fan is more symbolic than practical. From our trip to NYC in the fall of 2013.
