Infos

This is first full account of the most portrayed figural subject in Anglo-Saxon sculpture: the Crucifixion. It brings together in a single volume a record of every known stone depiction related to the Crucifixion from the pre-Conquest kingdoms, from South West Scotland to the tip of Cornwall, each illustrated along with contemporary manuscript images and ivory carvings. It is an analytical study based on fieldwork over several decades with the objective of providing a central resource for scholars who may not have direct access to the dispersed and fragmentary material.
