The Nestorian cross — with four arms, all of relatively equal length, wider at their ends than in the middle — was found all over Asia during the early middle ages, when Christianity thrived there. Here’s one from Turkmenistan:

Happy to be able to share new artwork for Epochs: Course of Cultures! This is the city of Chang'an the capital of the Tang Dynasty, where the herald of the Emperor speaks to the citizens of the city.
I think this is the first time I painted a cityscape in such a composition, a big step out of the comfortzone.
Hope you like it!
Best,
JCH
