Abstract
A terracotta relief gave a thermoluminescent date of A.D. 1475, and an attribution to the 15th century Italian sculptor Verrocchio is suggested. Repairs were found of damage that may have occurred during or shortly after firing. The relief had been remounted after alterations in the 19th century.
