He Is Condemned To Death

"He is Condemned to Death" is a photograph of a marble relief of the first station of the Stations of the Cross. The Way of the Cross has been a highly meaningful ritual to me since my initial participation in an Episcopal Cursillo weekend in the early 1980s.

Depiction of the Stations in marble has been germinating in my brain for a number of years, and the process of execution has now begun. I expect it will another year to year and a half to complete.
