Notes: |
The closest cross I could find to this one is the symbol used in Cabbalistic mysticism representing a Holy Name. It is also similar to the cross used by the pope and other Papist dignitaries alongside their signitures to remind everyone of how special they are. This image is taken from plate 53. |
