A baldacchino, Italian in origin, is a canopy over an altar or throne. In ecclesiastical architecture, this is more specifically called a chiborium. This is an effective way of visually highlighting the altar, especially in a very large building. Some baldacchinos are large, exquisite pieces of architecture, while some are smaller, and intricately crafted. This panel is from a frame that also was covered with a cloth. The aluminum pieces have a hand hammered metal look that references the Middle Ages. Inscribed with the initials “JHS,” short for “Jesus Hominum Salvator.” This panel would make a stunning visual focal point in any room.
