This beautiful medieval painting replica is based on the Crucifixion scene shown in Henry Jones, Sr.'s house in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. It is found among his collection of art inspired by the legend and lore of the Holy Grail.
It shows Jesus Christ being crucified while Ecclessia, the Church, catches his life-saving blood in a chalice, a symbol of the Mass. Ecclessia rides a beast composed of a Winged Man, a Lion, a Bull and an Eagle symbolizing the four Evangalists, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. On the right is St. John comforting Our Lord's mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary, who He entrusted to this apostle before His death.The image is also painted and detailed with acrylic gold paint and the base of the old frame was found on a flea market.
