history06 > Per Mr. John McAuliffe:

This crucifixion plaque was sculptured by my Dad, Florence McAuliffe for his father's gravestone...Timothy J. McAuliffe (also a sculptor).

After 60 years it had gathered a deep stained green patina.....

I spent hours removing it and applying a bronze laquer stain and a sealant spray over that.

This view shows the Irish symbols around the border.
