Abstract

Il contributo propone una selezione di vasa sacra per l’Eucarestia del Tesoro di San Martino della Chiesa Madre di Corleone. Vengono presentati pregevoli calici, pissidi e ostensori in argento e argento dorato, provenienti in gran numero dai monasteri benedettini di Santa Maria Maddalena e del SS. Salvatore di Corleone, che possono essere ancora prelevati dal deposito museale per il loro utilizzo rituale assolvendo al ruolo primario e significativo per cui erano stati commissionati da illuminati committenti e realizzati da raffinati argentieri dal XVI al XVIII secolo.
The present work proposes the study of a selection of sacred vessels for the Eucharist from the Treasury of Saint Martin of the Mother Church of Corleone. Precious chalices, pyxes and monstrances are presented in silver and gilded silver, coming in large quantities from the Benedictine monasteries of Santa María Magdalena and SS. Salvatore di Corleone These pieces can still be removed from the museum for ritual uses, so they fulfill the main function for which they were commis- sioned by enlightened clients and made by refined silversmiths from the 16th to the 18th century.
