Description

The oldest existing representation of the Sacred Cintola history, the legendary tale of the relic of Prato and its protagonist, Michele, is due to Bernardo Daddi. The precious predella was part of the altarpiece (now lost) preserved in the Cathedral of Prato, constituting at the same time a celebratory and didactic element. In the four panels of the predella, seven episodes divided by refined bands with geometric decorations, narrate in sequence how the Cintola reached the city of Prato. The detail refers to the second panel of the predella: St. Thomas entrusts the Girdle to the priest who will keep it in the Holy Land.
