A szoborról
This carved alabaster statuette represents the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, by which God is considered as existing in three persons: God the Father, God the son and God the Holy Spirit. The large and heavy figure of God the Father is enthroned and wearing a gown with a cloak draped over his knees. Between his outstretched hands he holds a napkin containing six souls of the saved, shown as diminutive heads. The cross, bearing the bearded Christ, (God the Son) his head inclined to the left and wearing a loincloth and the torse, is between his knees. There is a dowel hole in the cross above Christ's head which propably originally held the Dove, symbolic of the Holy Spirit.
This carving is said to have been formerly in a church in Abergavenny.
