The Entombment - a medieval Nottingham alabaster panel, circa 1450, the panel depicts the body of Christ partly enveloped in a shroud being placed in the tomb, His head supported by Nicodemus, His feet held by Joseph of Arimathea, the Virgin stands to the centre before three figures, to her right the damaged headless figures of Mary Cleophas, her hands held in prayer, and of St. John holding a palm frond, seated in the foreground Mary Magdalene, a box of ointment at her feet, retaining traces of original colour, in particular the green background painted with characteristic dotted red and white daisy-like florets, 42cm high, 26cm wide, mounted on a fabric covered board. There are 98 recorded English alabaster representations of The Entombment, the majority being panels in or from Passion altarpieces. During the Middle Ages, when the majority of the population could neither read nor write, works of art performed the double function of teaching the Christian religion and providing an aid to prayer, consequently churches were aglow with religious images, carved, painted and in stained glass. Against this background, from about 1380, Nottingham emerged as the European centre for the large scale production of carved, painted and gilded alabaster figures, panels and altarpieces, both for the church and for domestic shrines. There was a thriving export trade and to this day far greater numbers of Nottingham alabasters survive on mainland Europe than in this country. Here, the Reformation initiated by Henry VIII's break with Rome saw the wholesale destruction of 'superstitious' images and the demise of the Nottingham alabaster industry. However, some of these 'condemned' alabasters were hidden away and saved from destruction, but more significantly many escaped via a thriving illicit export trade to France and beyond.
