Jesus with a Heart: an upright painting for living rooms, dining rooms and house blessings
The painting shows Jesus with long brown hair and a halo, in a white robe with a red and gold mantle. He raises his right hand in blessing and points with his left to a glowing red heart on his chest, against a dark background. The Jesus with a Heart painting comes in 4 upright sizes, from 40 x 50 to 100 x 125 cm. For a 120 cm dining-room sideboard choose 80 x 100 cm, about two thirds as wide as the sideboard, above a 150 cm living-room chest choose 100 x 125 cm, and by a kitchen table 60 x 75 or 40 x 50 cm.
With YES under Stretcher, the Jesus with a Heart canvas arrives stretched and ready to hang. A frame is optional: for this devotional painting the Frame menu starts at “Without frame”. The 60 x 75 cm size ships in 6 days, the 40 x 50, 80 x 100 and 100 x 125 cm sizes in 15–45 days. Jesus, the glowing heart and the dark background are hand-painted with a brush, so it is not a print.
What does the Jesus with a Heart painting show?
Jesus with a Heart is an image of the Sacred Heart: Jesus with long brown hair and a halo, in a white robe with a red and gold mantle, blesses with his right hand and points with his left to a glowing red heart on his chest. The glowing heart is the sign of Jesus’ love for people, the raised hand the sign of blessing. That is why Jesus with a Heart often hangs in homes where the family is consecrated to the Sacred Heart, or where it gathers to pray.
Where does Jesus with a Heart belong in a home?
Jesus with a Heart traditionally hangs in a central place in the home: the living room, above the dining table or by the entrance, but also in a bedroom or a prayer corner. Keep the centre of Jesus with a Heart at eye level, about 150 cm from the floor; above a chest of drawers or sideboard, leave 20 to 30 cm between the top and the bottom edge. The dark background and the glowing heart come out in warm light.
How is the Jesus with a Heart painting made?
Jesus with a Heart is hand-painted by our painters with a brush. The dark background comes first, then the white robe and the red and gold mantle, and last the face, the hands, the halo and the glowing heart, whose light is built up in thin layers. Because everything is painted by hand, every Jesus with a Heart painting comes out a little different. When Jesus with a Heart is finished, we send you a photograph of it to approve and then ship it.
Rolled, stretched or framed?
We ship Jesus with a Heart the way you choose: rolled, stretched on a 2.5 cm deep wooden stretcher, or framed. We stretch Jesus with a Heart in our workshop in Slovenia and frame it on request. Stretched, it arrives ready to hang; rolled, a framer near you can frame it. A gold frame suits the red and gold mantle.
