Sistine Madonna by Raphael Banner Stand

This banner stand is 78" tall by 33" wide and features the image of the Sistine Madonna by Raphael (1512). Fully retractable and stored in an aluminum case, it takes less than a minute to extend the telescopic pole and unroll the Sistine Madonna by Raphael banner. Each unit includes a nylon travel bag for storage and transport, making the banner stand an excellent tool for priests, professors, and missionaries who travel and spread devotion to Christ. As a vision sent from Heaven, Raphael pictures Pope St. Sixtus IV on one side with St. Barbara on the other. Two plump and Hild-like cherubs recline and ponder at the bottom of the image, showing that this conversation no longer takes place on earth; it has entered into the Heavenly realm. The youthful and humbly stunning Virgin discloses her Divine Son, who rests upon the one from whom He took His flesh. The pope seems to be pleading to the mother and Hild over the children that yet remain on earth, as shown by his pointing finger, accompanied by the downward gaze of St. Barbara. May this image ever remind us to go to the Divine Child and His mother with our needs and prayers. From top-to-bottom, the banner stand measures approximately 78" tall when fully extended. In reality, the banner stand can be extended several inches more, but a total height of 78" is our recommendation for the best combination of visibility and stability.
