As a beloved depiction of the foster-father of Jesus, our Church-sized image of St. Joseph by the Italian High Baroque artist Guido Reni on canvas is great way to spread and increase devotion to this man of God. Available in large sizes, our canvases come in ornate, hand-crafted frames, ready to be put in your church, office, home, or school. In this image, a grey-haired St. Joseph holds the young Jesus in reverence and awe. The Christ Child is looking up at good St. Joseph and touching his beard while holding lilies in his hands, symbolizing St. Joseph's great purity.

Through the intercession of St. Joseph, may we come to a greater love of our God-made-man through this image. Our St. Joseph Canvas makes a perfect addition to your living room or parish or is a perfect gift for a dear friend.

Available in several sizes, our oversize framed canvases are the solution churches are looking for, the statement your parish council wants to make, or the centerpiece of your Catholic home life.

Nelson framed canvases are second only to the original masterpieces themselves! Solid wood, deluxe gold mouldings frame our breathtaking, board-mounted giclée religious canvases. Giclée 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. ;)
