1963 Creu de Palau.<br />

Girona.<br />

580 cm alçada.<br />

Pedra de Girona.<br />

Aquest municipi passava a formar part del de Girona, i es va<br />

voler que la Creu, que era de fusta malmesa fruit d’una missió<br />

de l’any 1944, fos substituïda per una de pedra. Vaig deixar que<br />

la pedrera en tragués un sol bloc per, segons la llargada, decidir<br />

les mides. El bloc fou més llarg del que estava previst. Calia<br />

fer una creu que tingués interès visual des de qualsevol punt de<br />

la cruïlla de camins on era situada. Es va gravar el motiu –una<br />

missió, si no recordo malament, de 1944. En un dels costats es<br />

va modelar la Marededéu. La Creu pròpiament dita va ser foradada<br />

pel mig amb la idea que la llum hi produís una creu de<br />

llum.<br />

This municipality came to form a part of Girona, and it wanted<br />

the Cross, which was of rotten wood, fruit of a mission in 1944,<br />

to be substituted by one of stone. I left the quarry to bring out<br />

one sole block, decide the size according to the length. The<br />

block was longer than I had anticipated. It was necessary to<br />

make a cross which had visual interest from whatever view point<br />

on the crisscross of paths where it was situated. The motif was<br />

engraved - a mission, if I do not remember wrongly, from 1944.<br />

On one of the sides was engraved The Mother of God. The<br />

Cross, properly speaking, was made a hole in through the middle<br />

with the idea that the light produced an interesting effect.<br />
