Circular plaque in gold and enamels, consistent with similar manufactures
made in the 11th century, of Byzantine production and bearing the effigy of St. George.
We can in fact identify the Saint by translating the writing "oAγιος Γεoργιος", literally
"Agios Georgios", present on the sides of his representation, developed from top to bottom.
The enamel processing technique with which the object was made is called "Cloisonné".
This work, certainly part of a larger installation, is entirely comparable
with similar plaques applied to the Pala d'Oro (Golden Pall) of St. Mark in Venice.
