STORY:
On a small island off the southwest coast of the Isle of Man comes one of the most evocative Celtic Crucifixion sculptures.

The most delicate piece of Manx carving that has survived, it was carved in the late eighth century and may have been a part of an altar. It was found among the ruins of an early Christian Chapel.

This cross shows Christ dressed in an elaborate robe with a roundel of knotwork over his chest, representing the heart as the spiritual center.

Early Celtic representations of the crucifixion show Christ triumphant over death. Chris is often clothed, sometimes magnificently so, with his arms wide open. In showing Christ as triumphant over death, they were showing that mortal humans could also triumph over death by their belief in Jesus Christ.
