Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
In the late 1990s a metal detectorist discovered a seal matrix which turned out to be that of the prior of the Dominican friary at Pontefract, founded by Edmund de Lacy in 1256. The article explores the subsequent history of the Pontefract friary and how seals were used by the order in England during the Middle Ages. The imagery depicted on the seal is discussed in the context of other Dominican survivals for Yorkshire. The conclusion of the paper is that the central figure is an early representation of St Dominic, perhaps the earliest in English medieval art. | |||||||||
