Focus on Tabán Christ and analyze the Description.
The youthful, beardless Christ is depicted seated on a throne, wearing a tunic, with a cruciform halo around his head. In his left he holds a small object which has been interpreted as a scroll, the object in his right hand is unrecognizable. The figure is set in a round medallion that bears an inscription on its rim. Only smaller fragments survived from the other elements of the composition: the upper part of a circular frame, which was significantly larger than the central medallion, and heavily damaged traces of decorative carvings around the medallion. A feathered wing is discernible with long quills and coverts on the upper right corner.
The fragmentary Latin inscription with Roman square capitals on the rim of the central medallion reads:
ORBITA TOLLITVR .... O GRADIVNTVR
The relief is interpreted as Christ in Majesty (Maiestas Domini), and it was supposedly part of the tympanum carving of a Romanesque church portal. The feathered wing may have belonged to an angel, the symbol of Matthew the Apostle, in that case the symbol of John the Evangelist was carved on the other side according to the traditional iconography.
