Stations of the Cross by Eric Gill at St Alban's Church

Twelfth Station

Station 12: Jesus dies on the cross, with his mother on the right and St John on the left. (cf. John 19.26). The inscription at the top abbreviates the Latin Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum, ‘Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews’; the Greek inscription held by John means ‘love me’, part of John 14.15 ‘If you love me, you will keep my commandments’.
