This magnificent 8th century Celtic cross from County Offaly, Ireland, depicts Christ in Majesty flanked by trumpeting and adoring angels and the Lamb of God, with additional Biblical scenes of Daniel and the Lion, David the Harpist, Abraham and Isaac, and a scene which seems to depict the Trinity with the Word of God. In addition, there are four Celtic knots and four spiraling bosses, perhaps symbolizing the four Gospels.
