Gesso and polychrome gilding highlight her importance to the story of Christ as well as, perhaps, emphasising her previous sexuality.\u003Cbr>􀁸 The shape of the figure is bound by the shape of the wood block, which leads toa closed pose, with hands and hair close to the body. This gives emphasis to meaning. |  |\n| Level | Mark | Descriptor |\n|  | 0 | No rewardable material. |\n| Level 1 | 1 | Knowledge and understanding are basic .
