Object Description
Framed painting of a cross surrounded by flowes on a teal background. The cross looks especially like a tree truck, with nubs of branches sticking out in a couple places. At the top of the cross which says "INBI". There are four flowers which rise from the base of the cross. There is a big red flower, two smaller yellow flowers, and a very small red flower. There is a signature of some sort underneath the cross image, but it is a symbol and it is impossible to tell the person's name. There is a sticker on the back of the painting which give the name Fanny Manos, but it is unknown whether she is the painter or the donor. The glass which protects the painting is cracked and some pieces are missing. The frame is also badly damaged, where some of the decoration is missing in certain places.
Origin
The cross is a symbol for Jesus Christ, the founder of the Christian faith.
