Roses in Winter — Ornate St. Rita of Cascia

An ornate devotional portrait of St. Rita of Cascia, the beloved Saint of the Impossible, rendered as a richly gilded baroque medallion. St. Rita appears in her Augustinian habit with serene downcast eyes, a radiant thorn of light touching her brow, hands folded around a single blooming rose — the miracle rose that bloomed in winter. Surrounding her, an elaborate arched frame of golden filigree scrollwork, climbing rose vines, and tiny honeybees, crowned by a ribbon banner reading "ST. RITA OF CASCIA" and a lower scroll reading "SAINT OF THE IMPOSSIBLE." A beautiful, meaningful carry-all for anyone holding onto hope.
