This small-scale reliquary, created by Jakob Höflinger before 1862, depicts Christ on the cross, flanked by two figures, and set within a detailed, architectural structure. This piece exemplifies the intricate craftsmanship common to reliquaries, often designed to house sacred objects and inspire reverence. The detailed carvings and the focus on religious imagery evoke a sense of spiritual devotion, typical of the religious art of the 19th century.
