This powerful image depicting the Disputation of the Holy Eucharist by Raphael comes as a canvas print in an attractive gold-finished wood frame. Handcrafted in Steubenville, Ohio, this piece is a truly artistic and religious addition to any home!

With Jesus in the Holy Eucharist as the focal point of this fresco, Italian artist Raphael paints the discussion between the Heavenly and earthly: the mystery of Christ's real presence in the Eucharist - the source and summit of our faith. Filled with rich meaning, Raphael depicts the Church militant below (on earth) and the Church triumphant above (in Heaven), filled with Saints, popes, contemporaries of Raphael, Old and New Testament figures, and many others. The power of the Holy Spirit and Angels proclaiming the Word of God connect the two spheres. Also symbolized is the deep union brought about by the Eucharist: man is brought into communion with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - the Trinity - and receives the Father's blessing. May we be urged on in our faith through this image, to seek deeper understanding of the Most Holy Sacrament both through study and contemplation.

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

This beautiful icon of the Guardian Angel brings to mind the angelic spiritual protector of every baptized Christian. Our Guardian Angel accompanies our life, and encourages us toward holiness while striving to protect us from danger through our conscience. He bears a spiritual sword for this purpose, but his true weapon is the holy Cross, which puts every demon to flight.

This icon is used in the Russian tradition for the feast of Pentecost, and in many churches it appears above the Holy Doors. It bears two meanings. 

On its surface, this icon depicts a scene from the Bible. The image of three angels grouped around a food-laden table is understood to illustrate the story of the Hospitality of Abraham (Gen. 18:1-8). Here Abraham had just been told by God that he and his wife, Sarah, though beyond childbearing age, were to be blessed with a son. Shortly thereafter, Abraham greeted three men—messengers from Heaven, but also guests in their own right and entitled to good treatment—who appeared on his doorstep. Abraham did all he could to make his holy visitors comfortable, and with Sarah’s help served them from the best provisions he could offer. The guests confirmed Abraham’s blessing. Consistent with a Scriptural interpretation, they are portrayed as angels. 

Second, while the icon does show the three messengers seated at Abraham’s table, icons like this one have come to be understood throughout Church history to be representations of the Holy Trinity, present even in the Old Testament covenant God made with Abraham. 

It is not necessary, though, to identify each angel in the icon as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Different versions of the icon may reconcile the question by different means—in some, one angel is clearly identifiable as the Son, and in others, which emphasize the unity of the three Persons of the Trinity, all three angels are identical.

Other icons, make the angels both united and unique. Sometimes the eyes of each angel are focused on the companion sitting to his right. The lines of their gazes form a triangle suggesting that, despite their separateness , they are united in one existence. Their placement above the Holy Doors, through which Holy Communion is brought out during the Divine Liturgy, furthers their connection to God’s becoming incarnate for our salvation and being present today in the Eucharist. The angels, unified around the feast, are partaking of Holy Communion themselves.

Also, while the three are otherwise identical to one another, they are clothed in different colors: one in red, one in blue, and one in green. These colors all have divine significance: red for active power and sacrifice for God’s purpose, blue to the contemplative depths and mysteries of God’s love and presence, and green for the peace and regeneration brought forth in communion between God and ourselves. The three colors, in both their meanings and appearance, complement and balance one another. Here balanced are the opposite tones of red-orange and blue, and midpoint in green: here is present the God who smote Sodom and Gomorrah, the God willing to have mercy on either city for the sake of one just citizen, and the God who delivered a child and heir to an aging couple long after they had accepted this was impossible; and, while we may not be able to pinpoint which figure is which, here are represented the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

This 21st century icon, specially commissioned by Legacy Icons, shows the scene of the Mystical Supper (or the Last Supper). Christ reveals that one of his Disciples will betray Him, as they look at one another with shock. Judas, the betrayer, is seen reaching his hand toward the bowl, as the Gospel says. At this Passover meal, Christ instituted the most holy sacrament of the Eucharist.

The holy Eucharistic meal mystically transforms the nature of meals, in the same way that Baptism transforms all water and the Cross transforms all trees. For this reason, many Orthodox Christians display an icon of the Mystical Supper, particularly large ones, in their dining rooms. This icon makes a wonderful housewarming gift, and an ideal gift for a newly-married couple.

Many Eastern prayers to the Theotokos speak of her Protection, or Protecting Veil. In this icon, it is depicted literally—her veil being a shield against all the attacks of evil. The depiction of the Bodiless Angels surrounding her is meant to teach us how powerful her protecting intercessions are for us. The Archangels and Guardian Angels stand by to assist us in our times of need as we live our lives in Christ.

Saint Katherine (also spelled Catherine) was a Great Martyr who suffered in the year 305 at the hands of Maximinus of Alexandria.

She is commemorated in the Slavic churches on November 24, the date of her martyrdom. In the Byzantine churches, she is commemorated on November 25, her feast being combined with the Leavetaking of the Entry of the Theotokos into the Temple. This change was made at the request of the Monastery of St. Katherine on Mount Sinai.
