Fragment of an archivolt decorated with bows from the Romanesque cathedral of Pécs. The cast was made in the plaster casting workshop of the Zsolnay Factory in Pécs in 1902, and it was exhibited in the Romanesque Hall of the newly opened museum in 1906. Probably lost during World War II, the current whereabouts of the artwork are unknown.
