Description:
Antique figural carved oak pieces with remnant polychrome finish, 29 cm, 22 cm and 19 cm high. Removed from a 17th century wedding chest created for a wealthy Catholic bride and groom. The priest has his arm in a sling representing the Catholic Church being persecuted by the Protestant Puritans led by Cromwell. The figures (and the chest, which never arrived) were purchased by the Greenbergs in an antique shop in Glastonbury, late 1960's.
