In the Cistercian church at Løgumkloster remains a painted medieval wooden cabinet made shortly after 1325 - unique in Denmark, but a typical example of our medieval religious art in that it is shrouded in mysteries: we do not know who made it, when it was made, what it was used for, and where it was originally placed. Furthermore, it has been repaired and repainted so many times that among other things we cannot be sure that its pictures are the original ones. This book is filled with color photographs of the cabinet and all its ornamentation which includes the panels representing the images of saints.
