This close-up shot showcases the intricate artistry of an emblematic bird in a gold plaque found during the 2009/wbtla Restoration project. The bronze plaque depicts the face and head of a person in prayer, and the handle shows visible signs of rust and corrosion, adding to its unique character. The plaque was likely used in the architecture of a church as a decorative handrail or altar symbol.
