Sint-Baafskatedral

Source: Pascal Brackman

Description

Guds Lam blev malet på træpaneler. Kun ét panel blev savet over for at kunne vise for- og bagsiden under en udstilling i Berlin i det 19. århundrede. Det er netop dette panel (faktisk to paneler), der blev stjålet. På den ene side var der en afbildning af Sankt Johannes Døberen, skytshelgen for den daværende kirke, som stod på stedet for Sankt Baafs. På den anden side stod "De Retfærdige Dommere". Forgængeren for Sankt Baafskatedralen, Sankt Jans kirke, er afbildet på det fløjpanel. På det centrale panel er der et ottekantet bassin med en fontæne afbildet, som refererer til kilden til levende vand, et udtryk for dåben. Den ottekantede form optræder også ofte i forbindelse med dåben: adskillige middelalderlige dåbskapeller, herunder dem i Ravenna og Sankt Johannes af Lateranen i Rom, havde en ottekantet form. Tallet 8 var også et symbol på opstandelse og evigt liv.
