This volume examines the enduring fascination with gold, tracing its material, spiritual, and mythical significance from antiquity through the Middle Ages. Focusing on the region spanning Lake Constance to the Chur Valley, the text documents the evolution of medieval goldsmithing from sixth-century Alemannic gold-leaf crucifixes to the iconoclastic destruction of treasures during the Reformation.
