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.
