Description

Book: Christian Art from Ethiopia and Nubia
This German book illustrates different kinds of Christian art, from paintings to traditional Christian objects, such as chalices and crosses. Picture 51, on the left, exemplifies a wooden hand cross, while picture 58 on the opposite page shows a metal processional cross. Both crosses carry the usual feature of Ethiopian crosses: lattice work.
