Embroidery calls for a close look
Look at stitch, thread and image up close and then at liturgical scale. Ask about the maker, workshop and context of use where these are documented.
Convent life behind the objects
Objects gain meaning through daily rhythm and religious function. Distinguish between personal legacy, community property and the museum’s selection.
Comparing wax and sculpture
Material determines fragility and appearance. Compare a wax figure with wood or metal and pay attention to conservation and presentation.
