Title:
Chrismon - Three Entwined Circles
Year:
1970
Description:
According to the Athanasian Creed we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in unity and so Borromean rings have been used to represent this idea. An association can be traced back to Saint Augustin of Hippo (354-430). He described how three gold rings could be three rings but of one substance. A now lost 13th century French manuscript described the word ”unitas” at the intersection of all rings and the three syllables of ”tri-ni-tas” distributed in the outer sectors.
