• Resumen

  • The Great Cross (Well of Moses) at the Chartreuse de Champmol, built by Philip the Bolt, duke of Burgundy, is one of the most extraordinary and striking late medieval monuments. A new reading of its imagery, and the context of its creation in the wake of Burgundian crusading ambitions, provides a compelling explanation for its form and purpose. The research builds on a series of articles published by the author in this Magazine (2005-08).
