This volume offers a description of five well known artworks depicting the Crucifixion of Christ: The Crucifixion Panel of the Isenheim Altarpiece, France; The Golgotha of Jasna Gora, Poland; The Carfin Monstrance, Scotland; the San Damiano Cross, Italy; and the Moone High Cross, Ireland. The author has followed certain main themes from each work that seemed especially meaningful to him in expressing particular aspects of the Cross. Since each artwork is unique, each chapter has a different approach. Nonetheless, each links to the next, so that together they form a coherent whole. This volume is especially suited to Lenten reflections and may more widely even inspire the reader to visit one or more of the Crosses as a pilgrim.
