| The top panel depicts a nearly total eclipse of the sun on the left which represents the darkness that descended upon the earth at Christ’s crucifixion. The sunburst sun on the right illuminates the life-giving meaning of the Crucifixion: through his death on the cross, Christ redeemed men from their sins. |
