Christ Child in the Rose Bower – 3 sizes – Based on Vintage Holy Card – Catholic Gift – Confirmation Gift

This delightful and charming holy card print is one of our favorites. It is a German engraving, we think from the 1850s. Mary and Jesus are seated on a cloud just above the ground. Our little traveler, who has a cape, a hat, and a walking stick, is kneeling before them, offering roses.

It seems fresh and vital to us, something that could have been done today. The art just feels so comfortable! We enjoy looking at this picture; we feel we are that traveler, come before Mary and Jesus. Our shoes are off because this is holy ground. The relaxed beauty in this scene lets us kind of enter into it, lifting up our rose bouquet!

The words in the banner, Das Christkindlein in der Rose, mean in English, the little Christ Child in the rose.

** IMPORTANT ** The image is smaller than the paper! There is a white border of about 0.5" inch for 5x7", 1.3" for 8.5x11, or 1.6" for 11x14" pictures. The border gives the prints a finished look, and lets them look good in frames without using a matt.
