A replica of the Olav Altar Frontal, the best known of 29 known Norwegian altar frontals or fragments of frontals. The replica is housed in the replica of the Haltdalen Stave Church in the Vestmannaeyjar, Iceland (63.444301, -20.261203). The original was made around 1320. The replica replicated the techniques and pigments of the original, and shows how vivid the colours of the original must have been when it was made. The replication team was led by Terje Norsted of the Norwegian Institute for Cultural Heritage Research. (Paul Torvik Nilsen, 'Colourful Middle Ages', Tell'us: Science in Norway (December 2001), 6-9.)
