Stations of the Cross, page 3
 |
 | The sixth Station shows the comforting of Christ by
the woman Veronica as he passed by. The name
Veronica resembles Cera Icone which is Latin for True
Likeness as the cloth used by the woman to wipe the sweat from
Christ's brow retained the image of Jesus. |
|
| The second fall of Christ is illustrated in the
seventh Station. Christ passed through the gates where it
was said his death sentence was pronounced on a poster, like paper
plastered to the side of the gate on the wall. |
