Missing Title

anonymous, 1680 - 1720

The maker of this lantern took a print depicting Christ as a gardener and Mary Magdalene and pleated it many times, shaped it into a circle, and sewed it together with needle and thread. The print can be folded into a small, round wooden box. This box is created when the wooden top and bottom of the lantern are fastened with a tiny metal pin.
