Word or term in question: |
promu au rang de palladium de la Belgique |
Context: |
Comment ce retable, de valeur exceptionnelle pour tout le monde, était-il venu chez nous affronter son destin après avoir été promu au rang de palladium de la Belgique entre les deux guerres ? |
![]() |
The answer of martynback |
after being elevated to the rank of the "Palladium of Belgium"
My comment:
Palladium = a sacred object believed to have special powers
The reference is pretty obscure - not many people would get it in French either.
So if I was translating this I would say "having achieved iconic status in Belgium".
An icon similarly being a sacred object that many people believe possesses mystical powers.
