0310000102 Portable altar, Medieval, from Germany, c1200. Portable altar engraved with the four symbols of the Evangelists and Saints Peter, Andrew, Stephen and Lawrence. Above the altar-stone, (likely to be a variety of Purbeck marble), there is an ivory of the Crucifixion and below it the Virgin and Child enthroned with two bishop saints. To either side is a miniature under crystal, of Saints Godehard (right) and Bernard (left), both bishops of Hildesheim. Beneath the ivory of the Virgin and Child is an inscription 'THIDERICVS. ABBAS. III. DEDIT', which reveals the identity of the patron as Theodoric, the third abbot of his name, possibly Abbot Theodoric who was abbot at Godehardiklosters, Hildesheim, Germany. In a cavity beneath are relics of saints. M&ME, 1902,6-25,1
