Dolomites italy dignity

Dolomites, Italy, Dignity

Piece description from the artist

Suffering becomes almost sublime at the summit of the Forcella Lagazuoi in the Dolomites. Whoever created this cross must either be a true artist, deeply religious, or perhaps both.
Christ suffers in dignity. This is the most stunning cross I've ever seen. Besides, the Forc is a phenomenal location to observe the Creation. The summit offers a magnificent panorama of well-known mountains such as Civetta, Monte Pelmo, Marmolada and Tofana di Rozes.
Strikingly, the crucifix is stuffed with coins that are wedged in the fissured wood of the cross. It’s a nice ritual and the wood never seems to become full. As if He wants to tell me that there’s still room – and not only in the wood.
