Devotional medal of Saint Nicholas on a support. Gilt bronze, textile, metal. 18th century. Devotional medal in gilded bronze placed on a support with wires that presents an oval frame enhanced with a crest with vegetal elements in a symmetrical composition and another top below also with vegetal elements and scrolls, and the figure of a saint inside this smooth frame. Standing, holding a staff in one hand and raising the other in a gesture of blessing, is a male figure dressed in liturgical attire, accompanied by some small figures praying, placed in a barrel or bucket. Saint Nicholas of Myra or Bari was a bishop who died around the middle of the 4th century AD. One of his most famous miracles was that of resurrecting three children (shown in this work) sacrificed by an innkeeper to feed his clients. Although he was bishop of the city of Myra, he is shown here wearing liturgical vestments but without the usual headdress (mitre). The three spheres that appear on the book would allude to the miracle in which the saint helps the father of three girls to gather a dowry for them (as they are three golden spheres).
