Agnus Dei "Lamb of God" Framed Artwork
From the internet:
The definition of Agnus Dei, Lamb of God, is quite straightforward. It designates the liturgical texts sung or said at the fraction rite in the Catholic Church, when the eucharistic species of the bread, now the Body of Christ, is broken, and a small portion is added to the chalice. After this comes the Invitation to Communion, which begins, “Behold the lamb…”
Lovely depiction of the Lamb of God, the artist was unbelievably talented, the body & leg stitchery is so bright and intricate
Newfld,
Thanks you! I seem to be bringing home a lot of religious "stuff" lately...had to have it.
