About This Design
The Espousal of the Virgin Poster
A popular subject in sacred art, and a suitable gift for engaged or newly-wedded couples, this illustration depicts the moment when S. Joseph was espoused to the Blessed Virgin Mary in the presence of the High Priest, sometimes traditionally said to have been Mary's cousin-in-law Zacharias, husband of Elizabeth. The Virgin's parents, Joachim and Anne, appear at the upper left and right corners of the image, while S. Joseph bears the miraculously-flowering staff which marked him out among the Virgin's prospective suitors; the jewelled dove worked into his headdress also recalls the legend of his divinely-inspired election as the Virgin's most chaste spouse and protector in this world.

I like the design features on the website. They enable the fitting of a good quality Print to an existing frame.
This Print was of excellent quality. I would buy again.
One small gripe is that the image was not centred horizontally (about 3mm out) so needed trimming. No great hardship and may have been my fault in the setting-up.
Next time, I would choose to set the text below the picture to a smaller font.
Overall - Thank You! Looks good in its frame - Just as expected. I had a very expensive Gallery print of this before. It got damaged - hence the replacement. It compares very well.

Absolutely love my poster. I have it hung in my reiki treatment room. Had so many compliments about it. The pastel colours are truly amazing
