Design for a tall candlestick (life-sized?). One section, in the middle of the stand, is covered in flowers. On the base, a burning heart is depicted, in which there is a cross with a crown of thorns hanging around it and in which the bleeding wound in Christ’s side is drawn. There are also two cherubs’ heads on the left and right of the base of the candlestick.
