The front of the sarcophagus shows the body of the saint, carved in relief, lying on a bier and covered with a cloth. At the ends are reliefs of angels swinging censers. From "The South Kensington Museum", a book of engraved illustrations, with descriptions, of the works of art in the collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London (formerly known as the South Kensington Museum).
