Reverse description Finely detailed depiction of Saint Christopher, patron saint of travellers, wading through turbulent waters while carrying the Christ Child upon his shoulders. The saint is shown in flowing robes, leaning upon a tall staff crowned with palm fronds, his powerful figure rendered in high sculptural relief. The legend KEEP ME SAFE ON LIFE'S TRAVELS arcs around the lower and left portions of the field, framed by a beaded border. The composition conveys movement and devotion, in the tradition of classical religious medallic art.
