2x Upper Torso of St. Joseph (Detail; VVP 09) Ceramic Ornament

2x Upper Torso of St. Joseph (Detail; VVP 09) Ceramic Ornament

In this detail of a 19th-century Belgian devotional print, a mature, grey-haired St. Joseph stands in front of a red wall hanging with golden yellow trim. The tapestry is patterned with equal-armed crosses enclosed in rotated squares. How it is hung defies logical explanation because the background consists of an infinitely deep aqua-blue sky bespattered with stars. + St. Joseph is richly garbed in strong colours. His robe is red; his mantle, green with a dark aqua lining and golden yellow borders. He holds a spray of white lilies symbolising purity in his right hand and an L-shaped brown wooden carpenter’s rule indicative of his profession in his left. Beneath St. Joseph’s sandaled feet in the full-length image that appears, for example, on our greeting cards and posters in this COLLECTION are additional attributes--a small dragon, a crown, a scroll, and a globe inscribed with the names of the populated continents—that speak to his role as protector of The Church. + This chromo- or colour lithograph was originally published to promulgate Pope Leo XIII’s “Prayer to St. Joseph” of 1889. + Principal Feast of St. Joseph: March 19; Feast of St. Joseph the Worker: May 1 + Image Credit (VVP 09): Detail from an antique chromolithograph of Saint Joseph, Protector of the Church, Pray For Us [H. Jozef, beschermer der H. Kerk, B.V.O.] originally published by K[arel] v[an] d[er] Vyvere-Petyt, Bruges, Belgium, c. 1890, from the designer’s private collection of religious ephemera.

Everything I imagined and more. Print quality excellent. Both text and photo. My attached photo's do not do it justice.

This is a lovely ornament, and great that you personalise the back with details of birthday, weight, etc.. My only tiny disappointment is the "My First" doesn't stand out very well on the background. More than happy with the printing of the photo and the writing on the back.
