This 3D-printed Museum Replica of the Monstrance with a Relic of Saint Sebastian, originally crafted in 1484 in Brunswick, Germany, captures the intricate Late Gothic design of the liturgical vessel. The original, attributed to goldsmith Werner Korff, was made from gilded silver and rock crystal to house a metatarsal bone attributed to Saint Sebastian, a Christian martyr revered as a protector against plagues. This replica meticulously recreates the monstrance’s verticality, filigree work, and Gothic architectural motifs, offering a faithful representation of its historical and spiritual significance.
