The four saints

At the base of the cross lie the images of four saints.  In the Franciscan depiction of this Cross, those would be the ​Franciscan Family: Saint Francis, Saint Clare, Saint Anthony of Padua, and Saint Bonaventure
Picture
Sometimes the four Evangelists; Mark, Luke, Matthew, and John are depicted
Picture
On the real cross, the images are rubbed out due to pilgrims venerating the base.
