Galley with Christ, the apostles, the four archangels, the four evangelists and church reformers. Nine apostles at the helm, the evangelists and John the Baptist on the bow. Central Christ with the cross and passion instruments as the cornerstone. Blood flows from his wounds at the celebration of the Eucharist and into the baptismal vessel with water in which a child is baptized. Above Christ the dove of the Holy Spirit and in the clouds God the Father
