St. Henry (Lord Jesus, crucified, Have mercy on us!)

As mentioned previously everything in this church is modern. A stark contrast to its architecture. Pictured here is a modern rendition of Station XI, (Jesus Nailed to the Cross).



I find it interesting that the feet are bound and not nailed and that the nails pierce the wrist and not the hands. The little basket to the right contains the implements used in the Crucifixion. It doesn't show up very well here. I guess I should have taken a close-up of it
