A vertically oriented enamel and wood wall cross features a slender vertical beam intersected by a shorter horizontal bar. Four rectangular enamel panels at the center depict elongated, stylized figures representing the Evangelists. Against speckled light-blue backgrounds, the figures wear robes in shades of blue, purple, and gray with solid red halos. Two panels are set above the crossbar and two below. The object is centered against a dark, neutral background.
