The monstrance is also called ostensorium (from the Latin ostentare, "to show"). In the Catholic religion, it is the piece of gold or other precious metal where the host is placed, after being consecrated, for the adoration of the faithful (believers).
Monstrances or ostensoriums have their origin in the institution of the feast called Corpus Christi in the mid-13th century. From the mid-15th century, the form of a turret or ogival temple (almost always made of silver) bristling with pinnacles and supported by an artistic base was adopted, with a lunula or lunette of silver or gold in the middle to visibly place the host. In the Renaissance, they were also built in the form of a temple but in the Roman style, and from the late 16th century, those that are more commonly used today in the form of a radiant sun began to appear, which in the 18th century featured circles of angel heads surrounding the central lunette.
