About this painting
God the Father is dressed for a procession. He wears a papal tiara and a cope, the clergy's processional vestment, as Cleveland describes: crimson velvet, gold thread in a large pomegranate pattern, fastened below the neck. The Son is on the cross; the dove is the Spirit.
The cherubim are bathed in red light, which Cleveland suggests may reflect stained glass: Girardin, whom Cleveland dates only by 1478, also designed windows in Lyon. Cover the cherubim with your hand and what remains is a vested cleric and a crucifix; uncover them and the red, perhaps of glass, comes back.
