Santa Croce in Gerusalemme


< previous > < index > < next >

The façade is crowned by a balustrade, but above the pediment is a trapezoidal screen with curving sides and top, and this bears a pair of sculpted angels venerating the wire cross finial. To each side on the balustrade there are three statues of saints, six in all - the four Evangelists and, on the outer corners, Helena and Constantine.
