Kit de broderie de perles – icône « Sainte Tatiana »

“St. Tatiana” is a martyr with a palm branch, in a pale blue veil over crimson robes.

What the picture shows

The young woman stands to the waist, facing the viewer. A light blue veil covers her head and shoulders, the beads laid across the folds; beneath it is a deep red dress with a wide sleeve. In her left hand she holds a green palm branch with narrow leaves; her right is pressed to her chest. The halo is gold with orange rays, the ground cream with an embossed scroll; a name plaque sits at the top and terracotta-and-gold fans in the upper corners. The beads fill the veil, the dress, the branch and the halo, while the face, the hands and the ground stay printed on the canvas.

The finished icon measures 230×300 mm — a size for a home icon shelf or a stand of its own. The beads go onto the print row by row, and the whole picture stays visible while the work is unfinished, so it is easy to stop and come back to it a week later. The frame shown in the photo is not in the kit and is chosen separately, to match the wall or the furniture.
