| Description | (continued from page 53) the figure of our Saviour, behind this representation of the Crucifictionis a figure of St Michael the Archangel thrusting down Lucifer with a Cross, above this come the figures of St Peter and St Paul and the four Evangelists, and nearer the point is carved St Anthony of Padua and another Monk holding up a Cross. The remaining space is filled with figures of Angels, each of whom in uplifted hands holds a Cross. As St Francis of Assisi according to the legend, received the Stigmatat the feast of the Exhalation of the Cross it is more than probable that this beautiful carved Ivory belonged to some Franciscan Church. |
