History

Research

Gemäss dem Künstler verweist der kreisrunde Brotlaib in der Mitte mit dem eingeschnittenen Kreuz auf die geistige und leibliche Nahrung, unten wird der Kelch dargestellt – beides symbolisiert die Eucharistie. Darüber assoziiert er die herabfliegende Taube mit dem alles durchdringenden Geist.
