Cruceiro

On the side shown here we see Christ in Majesty: hands raised, crowned, posed as if seated on a throne, and wearing a full-length vestment (close-up). The figure resembles the Christ in Majesty on the north tympanum San Salvador in Sarria.

The composition on the other side is of a kind more familiar to later ages (close-up), with a half-naked corpus and three mourning figures.
