Holy Family Icon Gallery Wrapped Canvas 12x8

Holy Family Icon Gallery Wrapped Canvas 12x8
$39.00

Traditional Catholic art gains a compelling new medium in gallery wrap canvas. Canvases featuring this modern art trend combine special printing technology and the technical skill of our Steubenville craftsmen to carefully wrap and tuck the canvas around the back of a 3/4" thick engineered wood mount. This method creates an impressive visual display with a faux 3D effect as the image continues around all visible sides of the mount. The canvas is free of visible staples or tacks and stands alone with no need for a frame. Each canvas hangs with a wire in the back and has an attractive satin-matte finish.

Our Holy Family gallery wrapped canvas is an iconic display of the Holy Family - Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. The three are shown in an embrace with all of their hands joining, depicting the unity of their love - the love that the Trinity is. Mary and Joseph's halos are joined, symbolizing their vocation of marriage: to be unified in their pursuit of holiness, continually being sanctified by the other. The fruit of this call and love is Jesus, whom they have helped form in holiness as well. May the Holy Family be a guide for us who are called to marriage or simply to each person brought into a family, that we may learn to love as they love.

A simple, neat, and beautiful way to adorn your home, office, or parish - or even to give as a gift to a friend, relative, or priest. Handcrafted at our shop in Steubenville, OH.

Icon St Andrew the First-called 3x4

Icon St Andrew the First-called 3x4
$11.95

St. Andrew, whose feast day is November 30th, and is the patron saint for fishermen. Andrew, like his brother, Simon Peter, was a fisherman. He became a disciple of the great Saint John the Baptist, but when John pointed to Jesus and said, "Behold the Lamb of God!" Saint Andrew understood that Jesus was greater. At once, he left Saint John to follow the Divine Master. Jesus knew that Saint Andrew was walking behind him, and turning back, he asked, "What do you seek?" When Saint Andrew answered that he would like to know where Jesus lived, Our Lord replied, "Come and see." Saint Andrew had been only a little time with Jesus when he realized that this was truly the Messiah.

From then on, he decided to follow Jesus. Saint Andrew was thus the first disciple of Christ. Next, he brought his brother Simon (Saint Peter) to Jesus and Jesus received him, too, as His disciple. At first the two brothers continued to carry on their fishing trade and family affairs, but later, the Lord called them to stay with Him all the time. He promised to make them fishers of men, and this time, they left their nets for good. It is believed that after Our Lord ascended into Heaven, Saint Andrew went to Greece to preach the gospel. He was put to death on a cross, to which he was tied, not nailed. He lived two days in that state of suffering, still preaching to the people who gathered around their beloved Apostle.

He is best known for "Introduction to the Devout Life," a book he wrote for to help laypeople in the path of holiness amidst the struggles and demands of their daily lives.
