Description
Europe, ca. 15th to 16th century CE. These are the gilded bronze arms of a cross that depict two symbols of Christ's Apostles. The first shows a saint holding a book; the second shows a griffin, which is sometimes taken to be a symbol of Christ's dual nature as both man and god. Size of each arm: 4.3" W x 3.5" H (10.9 cm x 8.9 cm).
