Known as "The Apostle of Ireland," St. Patrick was taken from his childhood home by pirates and brought to Ireland as a slave. Turning to God for comfort and strength, he was eventually able to escape and reunite with his family. A vision later inspired him to return to Ireland, where he preached God's word using the native shamrocks to illustrate the Holy Trinity and converted thousands to Christianity. Now, his story shines with the St. Patrick: Illuminations of Ireland Sculpture, available in a limited edition only from The Bradford Exchange.Masterfully handcrafted and hand-painted, this illuminated sculpture portrays St. Patrick preaching God's love with a shamrock in one outspread hand.
