BACKPACK - Christ and the Virgin Enthroned with Forty Saints, 1328

Transport Byzantine artistry wherever you go. This backpack draws inspiration from the luminous 1328 icon "Christ and the Virgin Enthroned with Forty Saints," translating sacred iconography into wearable design.

The spacious interior accommodates daily essentials with dedicated laptop storage, while a concealed rear pocket secures valuables. Constructed for durability, it merges historical reverence with contemporary utility—ideal for those who seek substance and aesthetic refinement in their everyday carry.

The original Byzantine era Masterpiece, "Christ and the Virgin Enthroned with Forty Saints," was painted in the year 1328 as a miniature page on vellum inside of a Choir Book (Laudario).  The Artist is known as the Master of the Dominican Effigies.  This work of art  is at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. where it currently is not on view.

"Each piece in my MASTERPIECE LIVING Collection reflects meticulous curation; I have carefully selected and adapted historical artworks to honor their original significance, creating stunning works of art that will enhance your daily life.  I have personally designed each item in my MASTERPIECE LIVING Store with careful attention to every detail to ensure that the respective ancient Masterpiece used is given 'new life' in a respectful way.

Your Backpack is made for you when your order is received with the same care applied to the design process, ensuring quality that transcends mass-manufactured alternatives.  Expect a slightly extended production window as your order is made with precision. The result: a Backpack that carries both artistic integrity and has an amazing design."
