cloister-collection-official.jpgThis icon plaque, A Child is Born For Us, comes from the Cloister Collection, Nelson Gift Wholesale's exclusive line of wood slab icons.

The image is an illuminated manuscript of the introit (the opening prayer) of the third Christmas Mass in the in the latin mass, "Puer Natus Est". It is taken from the verse in Isaiah 9:6, which reads, "For a child is born to us, and a son is given to us, and the government is upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called, Wonderful, Counsellor, God the Mighty, the Father of the world to come, the Prince of Peace". Here is a link to what the chant sounds like. This text is also famously sung in Handel's Messiah.

Step into the past and experience ancient beauty with Cloister Collection icons. Fashioned in Steubenville, Ohio by a dedicated team of Catholic woodworkers and graphic restoration artists, these large, weighty icons have a medieval, weathered look produced through a complex process of machining and digital printing.  Feed your soul and others' with these rich depictions from the history of the Catholic Church.

The 8"x12" image size is 9" wide by 13" tall and 1-1/2" deep including the plaque and is 1.84lbs.
The 12"x18" image size is 13" wide by 19" tall and 1-1/2" deep including the plaque and is 2.84lbs.

The icon is heavy and feels rich with authenticity and character; it can propped up, laid on an altar, or wall-hung from the sturdy d-ring on back.
