St Philip, museum number A.154-1922 (Victoria and Albert Museum)

Victoria and Albert Museum collection record, read 2026-08-18

The Victoria and Albert Museum's own collection record for "St Philip," a carved, painted and gilt alabaster panel, England, 1440 to 1460, one of a twelve panel apostle set said to have come from Zamora, Spain, likely from the upper section of a rood screen. The record gives museum number A.154-1922 and a physical description of a haloed, beardless figure in gown and cloak, holding a chalice in his left hand and a painted scroll inscribed with Creed text in his right.

The holding museum's own catalogue record for the accessioned object, the strongest available record for its date, place of origin and museum number, its own title naming St Philip directly and describing the chalice and Creed scroll he holds.
