The Cast Courts at the V&A is filled with monumental mythical and biblical objects. Laid at the back are 12 effigies packed together, resembling a graveyard. Here, a literal manifestation of the earthly and the divine is presented. Yet only the effigies are present, not the tomb. Through the transposition, the body is lost, and its container forgotten. The effigies are removed from their contexts, reframed according to their symbolic potency. Here at the V&A, the effigies are not viewed as religious but art. They are exhibiting to the museum viewers, not God. Therefore, only the decorative statue is replicated, not the tomb. Remained are the signifiers of class and power.
