Zeit Am Tisch - Tafelobjekte des Spätmittelalters und ihr Publikum

Only a few secular table objects from late medieval France and Burgundy have been preserved. Courtly inventories reveal that their original riches and the visual themes they presented were multifaceted and highly topical. Drinking vessels, table fountains, and salt cellars often served their owners as stores of value that were reworked, modernized, or even melted down as financial resources when the need arose.
