Curated by Xavier F. Salomon, the show features ornate metalwork, textiles, and vestments dating from the 16th to 18th centuries, drawn from the Terra Sancta Museum's collection and traveling to only two U.S. venues. The exhibition includes pieces such as a gilt silver reliquary from 1628-29 and a gold crucifix from 1756, displayed in low lighting to evoke a candlelit church atmosphere.
