Exaltation of the Holy Cross

Fra Angelico

Pacino di Bonaguida

Unknown

These images, though historically inaccurate, depict Christ eager to ascend the Cross - even with exultation - to accomplish his greatest work...  

For God so loved the world that he gave his only son ...

“I have come to set the earth on fire, and how I wish it were already blazing!50 There is a baptism with which I must be baptized, and how great is my anguish until it is accomplished!"

    Beautiful depictions of Christ crucified. There is a story in each one meant to edify and educate. Again, thank you.
