Two columns among the early Christian ruins at Philippi,each crowned with a cross.
I drew them on site, standing in front of them. Philippi was a Greek and Roman city long before it was a Christian one, and the crosses were cut into the capitals of columns that had been raised for other gods. Nobody replaced the stone, they simply marked it and carried on.
