Image description

From 'Legend of the True Cross' based on the Golden Legend by Jacobus de Voragine showing the lives of various saints and the biblical origins of the Cross used to crucify Christ. King Solomon makes a bridge of wood from a tree in the Garden of Eden. His wife the Queen of Sheba (not shown) is about to cross the bridge when miraculously she learns that the Saviour will be crucified on the wood. Solomon, fearing for the Jewish people, orders that the bridge be removed and the wood buried - though it is later found.
