"Although objects associated with the Passion and suffering of Christ are among the most important and sacred relics venerated by the Catholic Church, there has never been a study that considers how they were presented to the faithful. Cynthia Hahn adopts an accessible, informative, and holistic approach to the important history of Passion relics--first the True Cross, and then the collective group of Passion relics--stretching from their display in reliquaries, their presentation in church environments, their purposeful collection as centerpieces in royal and imperial collections, and finally to their veneration in pictorial form as Arma Christi.
