Our Lady of Africa / Tabernacle of the World Icon Print

Our Lady of Africa/Tabernacle of the World

This image was commissioned by a priest from Africa. He requested that the icon be made into a monstrance so he could bring the Eucharist to the people while traveling. 

The features of Our Lady in this image are clearly of a Black woman. Her blue robes and golden crown are inspired by the devotional statue of Our Lady of Africa, which is in the Basilica of Notre Dame d’Afrique, in Algiers. That statue of Our Lady is the object of pilgrimages and has been credited with many miraculous healings.

Mary here presents Jesus to us in the Eucharist. The icon thus serves as a tabernacle, but also reminds us that Mary herself was a tabernacle. She carried Christ within her and presented him to humanity, thus making Mary the tabernacle of the World. AMDG!

Print on Fine Art Papers

Our fine art paper prints (also known as Giclee) are ordered by galleries, individual artists and photographers. The papers and inks are not only archival but use some of the most accurate print technology for full color prints.

Gatorboard® Rigid Prints

Your artwork or photography printed directly on 1/3" or 1/2" Gatorboard® panels. Gatorboard® is a similar but more rigid and sturdier than foamcore. Because it is so light, it can be easily used in frames or hung on the wall with velcro command strips. Printed with UV-inks directly to the panel, Gatorboard® prints are both smudge and scratch resistant. These prints can be placed directly into the frame without glass giving you a beautiful glare free print.
