Saint John: a small icon-style upright canvas for a prayer corner<\/h3>\n

The Saint John painting is done in the style of an Orthodox icon, with a Cyrillic inscription naming John the Baptist: the saint, with a halo and a staff, stands on a rocky hill amid crowds, a river, a town with red towers and lambs on a yellow ground. It comes in 2 upright sizes, 40 x 60 and 50 x 70 cm. For a prayer corner, the wall above a bedside table or beside a door, choose 40 x 60 cm. Above a 75 cm chest of drawers, choose 50 x 70 cm, two thirds as wide as the chest.<\/p>\n

Choose YES under Stretcher and the Saint John canvas arrives stretched on a wooden stretcher, ready to hang. A frame is optional: for this Orthodox-style icon the Frame menu starts at \u201cWithout frame\u201d. Delivery takes 15\u201345 days. The saint, the crowds, the town and the yellow ground are hand-painted on canvas, so this painting is not a print.<\/p>\n

What does the Saint John painting show?<\/h3>\n

Saint John shows John the Baptist in the style of an Orthodox icon, with a Cyrillic inscription that names him. The saint, with a halo and a staff, stands on a rocky hill amid crowds, beside a river, a town with red towers and lambs on a yellow ground. The river recalls the Jordan, where John baptised, and the lambs his words about Jesus as the Lamb of God. That is why Saint John suits anyone who honours John the Baptist or loves icons.<\/p>\n

Where does Saint John belong in a home?<\/h3>\n

The small format of Saint John belongs in a prayer corner, above a bedside table, beside a door or above a small chest of drawers. Keep the centre of Saint John at eye level, about 150 cm from the floor, and in a prayer corner at eye level when sitting or kneeling. The yellow ground goes with the warm light of a candle or lamp and with other icons on the same wall.<\/p>\n

How is the Saint John painting made?<\/h3>\n

Saint John is hand-painted by our painters on the model of Orthodox icons. The yellow ground comes first, then the hill, the river, the town and the lambs, and last the saint with his face, halo and the Cyrillic inscription, drawn with a fine brush. Because the small figures are painted by hand, every Saint John painting comes out a little different. When Saint John is finished, we send you a photograph of it to approve, and only then do we ship it.<\/p>\n

Rolled, stretched or framed?<\/h3>\n

We ship Saint John the way you choose: rolled, stretched on a 2.5 cm deep wooden stretcher, or framed. Saint John is stretched, and framed on request, in our workshop in Slovenia. Stretched, it arrives ready to hang; rolled, Saint John can be framed by a framer near you. Saint John looks right in a gold or dark wooden frame.<\/p>\n

Is Saint John a good gift?<\/h3>\n

Saint John is a personal gift for a baptism, the name day of John, or someone who loves icons, and the 40 x 60 cm size also fits a small wall. If you are not sure which icon is right, give a gift voucher<\/a>.<\/p>\n
