Abstract

The representation of bread and wine, that is the Eucharistic mystery, is one of the central themes of medieval iconography that persists well beyond the middle age reaching up to today's culture; the theme connected to the vine and wine, in particular, takes on a wider value which invests religious and symbolic aspects, but also those related to agricultural history in a transversal way in pictorial, illuminated and sculptural sources.
