About This Design

St. Benedict of Nursia (JM 07; Style 2) Coffee Mug

St. Benedict of Nursia (JM 07; Style 2) Coffee Mug

More than anyone else, St. Benedict of Nursia (c. 480-547) is responsible for the rise of monasticism in Western Christendom. His Holy Rule summed up by the motto “Ora et Labora” or “Pray and Work” is still, even after 1400 years, the bedrock upon which monasteries are founded. Nevertheless, in his own day, his Rule was not adopted without opposition. Twice attempts were made on St. Benedict’s life: First, monks who had entreated him to lead them as abbot poisoned his wine (symbolised here by the snake in a chalice). Then, an envious nemesis, a priest named Florentius, poisoned his bread. A raven carried away the loaf, however, before he could partake. + In 1964, St. Benedict was named protector of Europe by Pope St. Paul VI; then, in 1980, co-patron of Europe--along with SS. Cyril and Methodius, by Pope St. John Paul II. + Feast: July 11 + Image Credit (JM 07): Antique image of St. Benedict of Nursia, originally published in chromolithography by Josef Müller Art Publisher, Munich and New York, first quarter of the 20th century, from the designer’s private collection of religious ephemera. This is just one of over sixty images in a very popular style of devotional prints issued in several sizes and formats by Müller at the turn of the last century. + Prefer a solid coloured background? Simply hide or delete the pattern image. + Prefer a different colour scheme? See the Colour Palette postcard for recommended hues. Colour Palette postcards are found in an image's associated COLLECTION and in the Special COLLECTION devoted just to colour palettes.

Creator Review
I like to buy and review my own work to ensure you get an outstanding product and I’m happy to give the Primary Colours Beach Football Mug 5 stars because it meets my expectations completely. Pleased with it I am. Zazzle mugs are well fabricated, microwave and dishwasher safe. And this yellow red and blue panoramic wraparound motif is sealed with a durable and sparkling Orca polished gloss glaze finish. It’ll never rub off! The size and energy of two jostling figures and a burly goal keeper fit the mug's circular shape well. There's momentum in the carousel effect as the two jostling figures repeat and move right around the mug and meet a burly goal keeper. Big sharp original images precisely drawn and delicately captured in blue and red with plenty of bright yellow! An ideal gift for anyone who plays ball! A fun gift for all beachball and football fans. A pair with the Retro Grey-Grain Beachball Player Mug. Available in two sizes and several styles including Black Ringer, Travelling, and Stern. Go have a peek!
