Description

Eight fragments of the spine of a Gospel binding, made of gold-toned metal. They depict bouquets of flowers and fruit with leaves, worked in high-relief repoussé.

Note: the object comes from the pre-war (pre-1941) part of the collection of the H. S. Skovoroda Historical Museum. It was evacuated in October 1941, and returned to the museum in November 1944.
