Summary[edit]

Description
English: The Reliquary of st. Stanislaus. Central Europe, Vilnius (?), - 1500–03.The earliest surviving reliquary in Lithuania belongs to the type of so-called “talking” reliquaries. Its form refers to the relic contained inside – part of the forearm bone of the Bishop of Krakow St. Stanislaus. According to a tradition unconfirmed by documents, a small part of the saint’s remains was given to the Vilnius Cathedral on the occasion of its consecration by the chapter of the Krakow Cathedral in 1388. However, the reliquary that contains the remains is at least one century older and typical of the Gothic period of the late 15th-early 16th c.
Polski: Relikwiarz św. Stanisława. Europa Środkowa, Wilno(?), 1500-1503. Zbiory Muzeum Dziedzictwa Sakralnego w Wilnie. Najstarszy zachowany do dziś relikwiarz na Litwie należy do kategorii "mówiących" relikwiarzy. Jego forma świadczy o jego zawartości: jest tu przechowywana część kości przedramienia biskupa krakowskiego św. Stanisława. Według tradycji ten fragment szczątków świętego krakowska kapituła katedralna podarowała katedrze wileńskiej z okazji jej konsekracji w 1388. Jednak relikwiarz jest późniejszy o co najmniej sto lat.
