LOCAL GALLERY: CROSS - ALLOY CASTING
The'Vincentian Cross' was originally designed for the Daughters of Charity in the 1980s. However, it has since been adopted by many Vincentian Priests and Brothers, with the entwined 'V' and 'S' being variously interpreted as standing for St Vincent or Vincentian Service.
Three castings of the Vincentian Cross were made by Mrs L Mimovich of Melbourne, Australia, for Fr Gerard Wilkinson CM. Bill Irwin assisted in the design. The one shown above can be found at De Paul House at Marsfield. Sydney. Another hangs in the entrance hallway of the Presbytery at St Joseph's Parish, Malvern Vic. The third is in St Anthony's Church, Marsfield NSW.
The three castings were commissioned in the mid 1980s.
