Carved in oak around 1430, this is intentionally a head on a platter: the subject is John the Baptist’s beheading. Its partial form belongs to the original design, rather than later damage.
How to use the model
Examine the work from more than one angle.
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.
