This is a stone relief sculpture by Eric Gill, located above a stained glass window on the exterior of St. Thomas the Apostle Parish Church in Hanwell, London. The central figure depicts the crucified Christ, flanked by two figures: St. Thomas the Apostle and a woman. The inscription on the base of the cross reads "Ave Rex" and the figure of St. Thomas holds a book inscribed with "IN PRI NOBIS". The sculpture features a simplified, almost abstract style that is characteristic of Gill's work, emphasizing the form and spiritual aspects of the figures.
