The transition from a pagan world to a Christian world took place slowly. Though a cross appears on this 4th-7th-century Roman bronze lamp, the lid of the lamp features the face of Cupid, the ancient Roman god of love. Art from this period frequently mixed pagan with early Christian imagery. -- source link
