Dome Pendentive Crosses Four
pendentive crosses arch downward and are adorned
with gold-leafed trefoils each bearing a "cross
of redemption." Depicted is the cross of
Christ as the Lamb of God with blood and water
flowing from its side; the cross of Christ as
the Tree of Life ("I am the vine and you are the
branches"); the cross of Christ as the Alpha and
the Omega: he is our beginning and our ending;
and the cross of Christ as Victor over
sin and death.
