Shrine

Emile Cero

National Gallery of Art

The image features an intricately designed cabinet or altar with a prominent cross at the top, flanked by ornate pillars. The color palette consists of white and light blue with gold accents. Positioned centrally, the structure occupies most of the frame with the cross crowning the top center, while decorative turned columns are symmetrically placed on either side.
