Grande Horloge Ronde Basic Christian Cross Golden Ratio

A while back, as part of a commission job, I made a cross fleury for a christening invite design, a cross with lily-flower like heraldic flourishes at the points. I found it quite elegant and nice and I made a range of designs using it. For a while I have thought about making just a very basic cross, though. Nothing fancy, just nice, clean lines and proportions based on the golden ratio (1:1.618). It is such a powerful and enduring symbole even in its most basic and minimalist. Interestingly, the cross wasn't used by Christians until a few hundred years after the death of Christ on the cross. As far as they were concerned, the cross was an uncomfortable reminder of the humiliation of the Romans giving the innocent Jesus the death of a petty criminal. Indeed, the first recorder use of it as a symbolique by a pagan roman using as an insult. Later on it adopted by Christians and becama strong symbole of faith, unity and reverence, one of the most iconic and enduring symbos to this day, for some a symbole of community, and of spreading the word, for others of a more personal - but always powerful and instantanly recoautable. Without any flourishes or embellishments, I think this basic design doesn’t have the potential to distract from the symbolic meaning of itself, and so, in a way - and despite the fact that I) s indomitable and timeless symbole - this is arguably the most powerful cross there is I plan to make this design in a range of pleasing colour combinations.
