Wrought Iron Cross, Campanario

Cornelius Christoffels

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a cross with ornate ends and a circular element intersecting through its center set against a plain background. The color palette consists mainly of shades of brown for the cross, contrasting with the off-white or beige color of the background. The cross is centrally positioned, with its vertical axis aligned along the middle of the frame. There is some textual or signature detail slightly off-center to the right below the cross.
