St. Paul MIki and Companions

$25.00

St. Paul Miki (1562-1597) and his jesuit companions were martyred on the 5th of February, 1597, in Nagasaki, Japan, by the order of the Taiko, Toyotomi Hideyoshi. St. Paul Miki preached his last sermon from the cross. This sustained time of persecution eventually drove Catholicism completely underground by 1630, but 250 years later missionaries arrived in Japan to discover that a community of Catholics had survived “hidden” through all that time, tracing back to the work of St. Paul Miki and the Martyrs of Japan. Their feast day is February 6.

All of my portraits of saints original drawings were created with black Prismacolor pencils. This media choice was to insure a maximum contrast of black and white rather than the grey of graphite. The benefit is that all of my saint prints are the exact same size and contrast as the original drawing.
