St. Florian with Bucket (Clear Skies; M 019) Card

According to tradition, St. Florian once stopped a town from burning down to the ground with a single bucket of water… and prayer, of course. It is this feat that is depicted in our featured image. We have provided the basic image with two different backgrounds: one with soft white clouds against an aqua blue sky as here; the other with billows of dark smoke. St. Florian is patron saint of firefighters. + Feast: May 4 + Image Credit (M 019): Figure of St. Florian of Lorch extracted from an antique, late 19th century Eastern European devotional print in chromolithography, original publisher unknown, from the designer’s private collection of religious ephemera. The background of smoke-free aqua skies with soft white clouds was generated using the Filter Forge filter ‘Clouds’ by Squideey. + Prefer a different colour combination?
