Description
A still life image of bells that has red ribbon running through the image and captured against some old wood. This piece gives you the feeling of an old fashion Christmas. It would be perfect for your Christmas cards, or even a piece to hang in your home. Bells have long had an intimate association with Christian churches. In many parts of the country today, their ringing can still be heard every Sunday, and throughout the rest of the year for various religious celebrations � one of the most significant of course is Christmas. It comes as no surprise then that bells are a familiar symbol during the holiday season.
Though bells were used in ancient antiquity and even in the Jewish temple (on the hem of priestly garments), their association with the Christian Church may well have come from an unlikely source � St. Patrick. The famous bell of St. Patrick resides in Ireland, and according to tradition, Patrick, a missionary to the Emerald Island in the 5th century, used it to gather the Irish people together for the teaching and preaching of God�s Word. With time, the bell came to be associated with the Lord�s work and to symbolize something sacred.
