The Apse
Mosaic at San Clemente
Detail: Jerusalem
The rump of the rightmost of the sheep can be just seen on the
left. Above it is the inscription "Hierusalem." The cross
above the gare corresponds to the child above the Bethlehem gate on the far left:
Jerusalem was the city where Jesus died, as Bethlehem was his
birthplace.
