Actual Size (Not Shown): Matted print 12" x 16" This artwork was inspired by the Codex Aureus, a mid-eighth century gospel made in Cantebury. The original manuscript was spectacular enough to be held hostage and ransomed for gold by Norsemen in the ninth century. Saint Patrick was born into a noble family from Roman Britain in the late fourth or early fifth century; he was captured by pirates and sold into slavery in Ireland. After his escape, he won converts all over the island, and went on to become the second bishop of Ireland. Saint Patrick's Feast day is March 17.  The original artwork is created by hand with paintbrushes and calligraphy pens.  The item which you will receive is an Art Print which is printed on antique white archival paper using a high-quality digital process and then hand-gilded in twenty-three karat gold leaf.  The Art Print is signed and numbered by one of the artists. We also have a collection of Greeting Cards .   < Back To order by Phone call 1-800-798-617 Home | Our Collection | Contact Us © Gallery Byzantium 16 Mt. Pleasant Ave. Ipswich, MA 01938
