Fragment of a female figure in white marble depicting Faith, sculpted by Tino di Camaino between 1320 and 1324. Originally part of a sculpture group from above the Eastern door of the Baptistery showing the Theological Virtues of Faith, Hope and Charity. The sculpture is a bust of a female figure, rounded at its base. On her head she wears a crown over the veil draped around her shoulders. Her markedly oval face has long eyes and is framed by slightly wavy hair drawn back from a central parting. In the doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church, Faith is the Theological Virtue which inspires a belief in God and all that He has recounted or revealed. Faith is usually represented as a woman dressed in white, holding a paten, chalice and host in one hand as signs of the mystery of the Eucharist and a cross, symbolizing her contemplation of Christ crucified, in the other.
