About this work

An engraving with designs for altar decoration. The design is split in the middle to show two possible designs for the same altar. The design on the right is slightly more elaborate, decorated with ornate carving along the top of the altar and also a cut-out panel at the bottom. The panel in the center of the altar shows a scene from the Crucifixion of Christ. Print forms part of an album.
