This late sixth-century brass figure has a single halo that encloses both head and body. The radiating form explains the "combined halo" in its title; changes in light make the raised rays easier to see.
How to use the model
Use the 3D view to inspect the overall form, then zoom in to compare surface, joins, and tool marks. Lighting controls can make shallow carving and material changes easier to see.
