De kerkschat van het Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekapittel te Maastricht (Clavis kunsthistorische monografieën) (Dutch Edition)

Kerkschat van het Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekapittel te Maastricht: The treasury of Our Lady's Basilica holds numerous objects that recall the chapter's rich past. The textile treasure includes several richly embroidered liturgical vestments, including a choir cap of white silk with embroidery from c. 1525, a choir cap bearing the coat of arms of Dean Petrus van Loon (1661-1699), a 17th-century set of dalmation, chasuble and stoles of shorn red brocade, and a likewise 17th-century antependium of white silk with gold embroidery. Much of the liturgical vessels were lost during the period of secularization in and after the French Period, yet the church still possesses numerous chalices, ciboria, paten, monstrances, incense vessels, incense vessels, censers, candlesticks, processional crosses, flambeaus and fraternity plaques from the time of the chapter. Also in the church treasure are some charters and liturgical books.
