{"product_id":"saint-elvira-martyr-icon-on-wood","title":"St. Elvira, Martyr Icon on Wood – Catholic Sacred Art","description":"\u003ch2\u003eSaint Elvira the Martyr: fidelity remembered through sacred symbols\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVery little reliable biographical information about Saint Elvira has survived. Devotional tradition honors her as a virgin and martyr, and her feast has been associated with January 27. A careful account therefore begins with the limits of the historical record: her image communicates the Christian meaning of martyrdom more clearly than later attempts to supply precise dates or circumstances.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIconography and theological meaning\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eElvira wears a light mantle over a red tunic and a wreath of flowers, combining traditional signs of purity and sacrificial witness. She holds the martyr’s palm and stands beside a large X-shaped cross; a metal brazier at her feet suggests trial by fire. These are devotional attributes rather than documentary evidence, and together they proclaim victory through fidelity to Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFor prayer and Christian devotion\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis icon is a personal patronal image for women named Elvira and a focus for prayer for persecuted Christians, courage under pressure, purity of heart, and hope stronger than fear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCrafted on linden wood in Poland\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe image is printed directly onto a double-primed linden wood panel and finished with decorative gold leaf. Each made-to-order piece is produced in Poland, includes a certificate with the year of production, and has a hanger on the back. Natural wood, a luminous gold field, and precise contemporary drawing create sacred art suited to a home prayer corner, chapel, rectory, or a carefully chosen Catholic gift.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art Christiana","offers":[{"title":"10x15 cm","offer_id":57394214830345,"sku":"ACHI535S","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15x20 cm","offer_id":57394214863113,"sku":"ACHI535M","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20x25 cm","offer_id":57394214895881,"sku":"ACHI535L","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30x40 cm","offer_id":57394214928649,"sku":"ACHI535XL","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"40x50 cm","offer_id":57394214961417,"sku":"ACHI535XXL","price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/8483\/8153\/files\/achi535-religious-icon.jpg?v=1791401873","url":"https:\/\/artchristiana.com\/products\/saint-elvira-martyr-icon-on-wood","provider":"Art Christiana","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
