"Representation of the legend of Saint Gallus, as he rewarded the bear with bread, after he has worn wood on the fire. Gallus (lat. the Celt, c. 550 - 640, according to other sources 620 or 646-650) was a monk and missionary, who worked primarily in the Lake Constance region. He is also revered as the founder of the city of St. Gall. Woodcut after an ivory carving by Tuotilo (also Tutilo, c. 850 aa 913/915, monk from St. Gallen) from the cover of the Sintram's Evangelium Longum (gospel book) in the Abbey Library of St. Gall from my archive, published in 1880."
