This luminously beautiful depiction of Mary with the Child Jesus by Italian Baroque artist Giovanni Battista Salvi da Sassoferrato is a charming portrait sure to capture the hearts of young and old alike. The Immaculate Virgin is shown tenderly caressing her Son, from Whom her purity flows. Mary, please grow in us the tender devotion you have for your Son.

This particular item is an archival-quality giclée canvas in a beautiful gold cast frame. Handcrafted in Steubenville, Ohio, this touching devotional piece is sure to be treasured for years to come!

Nelson framed canvases are second only to the original masterpieces themselves! The ornate frames support our breathtaking giclée religious canvases. Giclee is a french word that means "sprayed ink," and it refers to our museum-quality printing process whereby 8 different colored inks combine to create millions of colors that are slowly sprayed into canvas material. This high-tech method of art reproduction offers the highest possible fidelity to the original work and results in a clear depiction with colors as good (or sometimes better) than the original painting. Under archival conditions, giclée canvases have a total color fidelity guarantee for 70-100 years.

For the faithful Catholic that wishes their sacred art to be blessed with holy water: canvases are sparingly water repellent, so while a typical blessing should not damage the canvas whatsoever, those who favor more robust uses of holy water should take caution near the art. ;)
