There are two parts to the famous Honorius ivory diptych, and the one usually illustrated is the one with the vexillum.

I've only found poor quality pictures of the other half of the diptych- does anyone have a clearer picture?

Thanks!

Thanks Vorti! Could you possibly send the 4MB version to my home email (paul.browneATbtinternet.com)?

Many thanks
