5th C. Byzantine Leaded Bronze Cross Finial

Item Details

Description

Near East, Holyland, Byzantine Period, ca. 5th to 7th century CE. A beautiful leaded bronze finial in the form of a stylized Latin cross with flared arms. Lovely trefoils project from the corner of each arm as a slender tang protrudes from the bottom arm for attachment. A series of incised dots embellish one side of the cross. Byzantium was established when the fourth century Emperor Constantine, also known as Saint Constantine, Christianized the Roman Empire and proclaimed Constantinople in Byzantium as the capital. The visual culture of this era oftentimes demonstrates a synthesis of classical Greek, Roman, and Christian influences. This piece of course represents the impact of Christianity on the Byzantine Empire. Size: 3.4" W x 5.4" H (8.6 cm x 13.7 cm)

Provenance: ex-Provos collection, Bremen, Germany, acquired prior to 1990
