Byzantine Cross



For my symbol in the mosaic I decided to do the Byzantine Cross, a famous cross that was found in the Byzantine Empire. It is mostly used in the Eastern Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Church, and cannot be found in any other ones. The second bar from the top is for the INRI inscription while the bottom one is for his footrest. This sign represents sacredness and religion, it is commonly found in churches and serves as a sign of sacredness. Over all, I chose this for my mosaic because it really had a meaning and at the same time could be done. This project was really interesting and I look forward to more interactive projects.
