Object number RP-P-2016-49-83-1. The museum's own page does not itself say which Saint Brigid the print shows; independent reference sources place this Liber Chronicarum entry as Brigid of Kildare, patroness of Ireland, rather than Bridget of Sweden.FactsCross-Tradition ConnectionsClaims Backed By This Source (11 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested1The holding museum's own collection record for the accessioned woodcut. Its own inscribed title, "Brigida virgo," does not distinguish between the two saints of that name, so the identification as Brigid of Kildare is corroborated here by two independent secondary records rather than by the museum record alone.CitationPublisherWell-attestedRijksmuseumURLWell-attestedhttps://www.rijksmuseum.nl/en/collection/object/Heilige-Brigida--b9d7820acc060fa884acca16ad8689dcSource TypeWell-attestedMuseumCross-Tradition ConnectionsAssociated WithBridget of Sweden, Figures Well-attested This source names Bridget of Sweden directly: "patroness of Ireland, rather than Bridget of Sweden."Source Heilige Brigida, Rijksmuseum (workshop of Michel Wolgemut, 1493)tier 1Brigid, Deities Well-attested This source names Brigid directly: "own collection record for "Heilige Brigida," a woodcut illustration inscribed "Brigida virgo," from Hartmann Schedel's Liber Chronicarum (the Nuremberg Chronicle), made in the workshop of Michel..."Source Heilige Brigida, Rijksmuseum (workshop of Michel Wolgemut, 1493)tier 1Brigid of Kildare, Figures Well-attested This source names Brigid of Kildare directly: "place this Liber Chronicarum entry as Brigid of Kildare, patroness of Ireland, rather than Bridget of Sweden."Source Heilige Brigida, Rijksmuseum (workshop of Michel Wolgemut, 1493)tier 1Claims Backed By This Source (11 claims)This source backs 11 claims across the atlas.
