# Casket of the Blessed Julianna [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [UNKNOWN MASTER, Italian]() - Date: 1251-1300 - Technique: Painted wood, 90 x 174 x 69 cm ## Commentary Thirty-five years after the death \(around 1262\) of the Blessed Julianna of Collalto in the convent she founded on the Giudecca, her uncorrupted remains were exhumed and placed in this casket with a removable frontage to allow the body to be displayed. She is pictured on the lid, kneeling before the bishop saints Cataldo and Biagio, to whom the convent was dedicated. The crude paintings on the front and the inscription date from much later attempts at restoration. ## Related artworks - [A Bishop Saint]() - [A Curious Scene]() - [Adam and Eve; Cain and Abel]() - [Adoration of St Mark]() - [Allegorical Portrait of Dante]() - [Altar frontal]() - [Altarpiece \(detail\)]() - [Altarpiece of St Clare \(detail\)]() - [Altarpiece of St Clare \(detail\)]() - [Altarpiece of St Clare]() - [Altarpiece of the Magi]() - [Altarpiece]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
