Light of the World - Gold Framed Art
$30.00 - $121.00
A luminously beautiful depiction of Christ as the Light of the World, this piece comes in an a highly attractive gold frame and secured.
As a glimpse into the interior of the human heart, William Holman Hunt painted this picture in the mid-nineteenth century after Revelation 3:20: "Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if any one hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me." The risen and regal Christ stands and knocks at a long-unopened door in the midst of a dark and baren forest - the heart and mind of a person who has obstinately kept his heart closed from God and neglected his own soul. As for the lighting in the image, the two main sources of light come from Christ's holiness and His lamp, signifying that He comes to bring the Light of the Holy Spirit - grace - to transform the sleeping person. While meditating upon this image, may our hearts and minds ever be more opened to Our Lord, who comes to mercifully reign over the body and soul.
Hand-crafted at our shop in Steubenville, OH, this picture is a truly artistic and religious addition to any home!

The Light of the World
As it is with every framed art print that I've ordered from Catholic To The Max, this print was beautifully framed and the presentation of the art first class. This was a gift for a Priest/Friar who loves the print and preached a homily that I'll remember always. Thank you!!
