The Rejection of Joachim's Offering by the High Priest. The High Priest and his assistants stand behind a cloth-covered table surrounded by a crowd of men, one of whom holds a kid and is accompanied by a small boy. Anna stands with her hands clasped in the foreground to right, while Joachim presents his kid to the High Priest. In the background, there is a partly drawn green curtain in front of a wall with three windows and an archway opening into a vaulted chamber.no cataloguereferenceexhibition-1605adlib-exhibition-160504d3c358-0bef-3d8f-8df5-14f16987ac1bItalian Maiolica in the Fitzwilliam MuseumC.91-19611accession numberC.91-196176350priref76350urihttps://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/76350https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/76350referenceagent-149638adlib-agent-1496387376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8The Fitzwilliam MuseumL.C.G.

Joachim made his offering on a feast day, but it was rejected because persons who had not fathered a child in Israel were not permitted to make sacrifices. The source for design on this panel was either the woodcut in the Life of the Virgin by Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528), c. 1505-6 , which appeared in book form in 1511, or the engraving by Marcantonio Raimondi after Dürer. The windows and the weeds growing out of the wall on the maiolica panel do not occur in the original, nor Marcantonio's engraving after it. Although Renaissance maiolica painters often adapted their sources this panel was suspected of being an early 20th century pastiche, and this was confirmed by thermoluminescence analysis by the Oxford Research Laboratory for Archaeology and the History of Art (report dated 19 November 1993, sample 581m41) which estimated that the sample taken was last fired less than 100 years ago. Possibly it was painted by Ferruccio Mengaroni (1875-1925), a highly talented maiolica painter in Pesaro.referenceterm-107318adlib-term-107318d27559f3-e90c-35cd-b7e4-46eaeb9ac52120th Centuryreferenceterm-113179adlib-term-113179e74d25a1-07c3-3a30-b91b-004673211ee5literalItalyItalycountryliteralThe MarchesThe MarchesregionPesaroreferenceterm-42861adlib-term-428615b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956cearthenwareDepthcm1.1Heightcm26.0Widthcm17.7referencemedia-47506adlib-media-475067aa3a36a-912f-3b84-9b45-30928872469cjpegaa/aa1/C_91_1961.jpg1heightpixels740widthpixels55216162620412201imagejpegaa/aa1/mid_C_91_1961.jpg1heightpixels670widthpixels50016162620412201imagejpegaa/aa1/C_91_1961.jpg1heightpixels740widthpixels55216162620412201imagejpegaa/aa1/preview_C_91_1961.jpg1heightpixels335widthpixels25016162620412201image0media
