Abstract

The altar together with the figures was most probably made in the 1770s by the Kornecki workshop to the Cistercian church in Mogiła. In 1948 it was moved to the church of the Missionaries of La Salette dedicated to St. Norbert at Wiślna Street in Cracow, and in 2006 to a new church in Tokarnia. Zachariah was the husband of St. Elisabeth and father of St. John the Baptist In iconography he is portrayed as a mature man because he become a father when he was in old age.
