Wenceslaus Hollar made this etching of an over-life-size chalice from a drawing in the collection of his patron, the English 14th Earl of Arundel. The elaborate decoration consists of scenes from the suffering and death of Christ, standing saints and apostles on the stem, and a pointed foot inspired by Moorish designs (a style prominent in Spain and North Africa featuring distinctive pointed arches). The barely discernable crescent shape just above the rim suggests a hovering Eucharistic wafer, representing the body of Christ.",
