Painting of the Day for Booth 67 in Marion Square
Symbol of St. Mark - from the Echternach Gospels
11x14"
Mixed Media
Another mixed media piece from my Mark series, painted at a worship service several months ago. The Echternach Gospels is an illuminated gospel manuscript written around 700 A.D. and again we see the lion as the symbol of St. Mark. This lion, however, is not represented with the wings as many of the St. Mark lions are. St. Mark is the patron saint of Venice, so if you google the lion of St. Mark, you will see some fabulous stone, mosaic, etc. lions - many from Venice.
