Perlenstickerei-Set Mini-Ikone auf Kunstleinwand „Heilige Xenia“

“St. Xenia” is a blessed woman in a blue-green jacket and a white kerchief, a staff in her hand. The most everyday-looking image in the batch.

What the picture shows

The saint is shown to the waist in a white kerchief with blue shadows, tied under the chin. Her outer garment is a loose blue-green jacket worked in beads of two tones, with a red skirt showing beneath. Her right hand is raised in blessing, her left holds a dark staff. The halo is a ring of amber beads and the ground is golden rays with red dots at the top. The beading takes the clothing, the halo and the plaque frame, while the face and hands remain printed, and the radiance stays print as well.
