Framed Print of Reverse of an Ancient Cross found at Cork, 1850. Creator: Unknown
Reverse of an Ancient Cross found at Cork, [Ireland], 1850. Engraving...from a nicely-pencilled drawing by a lady, [showing] the reverse of an ancient Cross or reliquary found in Ireland. This curious specimen of ancient art was discovered in a highly sculptured stone coffin in a churchyard near Cork, containing also the usual reliques. The obverse of the Cross gives a representation of the Crucifixion, with INRI over the head of the Saviour; on the limbs of the Cross are the first words of the penitent thief, Domine memento mei'. Three skeletons were in the coffin: the Cross was lying on the breast of one; the head of another was lying at the feet, as if decapitated during life...The Cross is archieopiscopal, and is ascribed by the antiquaries of Cork to a very early period: it is of bronze, and was originally gilt. It is now in the possession of the Rev. Dr. Neligan, Rector of St. Mary Shandon'. From Illustrated London News, 1850.
