This is an icon of St. Francis including the Wolf Of Gubbio by Francis' side and a depiction of the burning bush, signifying the Saint's teaching about God's creation.
Next in the series: An icon of St. Hilda, an important saint to Anglicans and English Catholics. She was one of the prominent English abesses of the seventh century. Hilda presided over a joint monastery of men and women, and her prestige and influence as a church leader in her time were like that of a bishop--hence she is often pictured with a crosier like that of a bishop. This icon will be a full-figure one set up a lot like this latest Francis icon, with some interesting differences.
