A wealthy layman holds a rosary prayer bead similar in style to the boxwood miniatures on display at The Met Cloisters. The piece is titled “Heinrich(?) vom Rhein zum Mohren (1477–1536)” and is a late 1520s copy after Conrad Faber von Creuznach. Image courtesy of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
