This sweet mosaic cross integrates five images of the Infant of Prague from holy cards. Each precious image is outlined in gold paint and embellished with red and gold-tone gems, crosses, crucifixes and other mixed media treasures. Devotion to the Christ Child under the title of the Infant of Prague dates from the Middle Ages and is one of the most powerful and beloved devotions of the Catholic Church. It is credited with countless miracles. This piece would be a wonderful addition to any devotional space, in particular in an entryway facing the door. "The more you honor Me, the more I will bless you." -The Infant of Prague
The cross measures 10" by 7" by 1/2" deep and is designed as a wall cross with a metal hanger attached. The metal cross base is painted bronze on the sides and white with black accent on the back. It is signed on the back by the artist.
The cross is created by Julie Wishmeyer, Bachelor of Fine Arts, Art Institute of Chicago. "I am fascinated with minute detail, daring expression and bold design. My functional art is an assemblage of treasures that truly transform the objects they adorn into something extraordinary."
