Cross of Lorraine : ウィキペディア英語版 | Cross of Lorraine
The Cross of Lorraine (French: ''Croix de Lorraine'') was originally a heraldic cross. The two-barred cross consists of a vertical line crossed by two shorter horizontal bars. In most renditions, the horizontal bars are "graded" with the upper bar being the shorter, though variations with the bars of equal length are also seen. The ''Lorraine'' name has come to signify several cross variations, including the patriarchal cross with its bars near the top. ==Design== The Cross of Lorraine consists of one vertical and two horizontal bars. It is a heraldic cross, used by the Dukes of Lorraine. Duke René, who reigned between 1431 and 1453, "was a major transmitter of the Hermetic tradition in Italy and had the cross of Lorraine as his personal sigil".〔Christopher McIntosh: (''Gardens of the Gods: Myth, Magic and Meaning in Horticulture'' ). London: I.B. Tauris 2005, p. 130.〕 This cross is related to the Crusader's cross, and the six globes of the Medici family.
