CROSS IN THE CEMETERY OF SAINT-JUERY

Cross

in SAINT-JUERY

The dating of this cross seems to correspond to the style characteristic of the Flamboyant period. The 15th century saw an evolution in the sculpted representation of crosses. Christ's arms became longer, the finials more elaborate, and the iconography more precise. Indeed, one side depicts Christ on the cross, and the other a seated Virgin and Child. Foliage composed of six petals adorns each end of the cross's arms.

Location details

The cross is located at the back of the Saint-Juéry cemetery, at the top of the village.
