The Cross, more than 80cm tall, is an object of personal devotion. Even a simple object, though with an artistic value, could be a powerful symbol of faith and a means for an ongoing dialogue with the mysterious ways of the Lord. The sense of piety sparked by the features of Christ on the cross embraces the whole of humanity and its precarious existence, in an age of wars, poverty and sickness.
