The full liturgical year illustrated as a wheel.
This is the unframed version of the calendar, so you can obtain your own frame that suits your home decor or personal style needs. The framed version is here.
• This took about two years to make.
• I made all the typefaces (fonts) used, and did all of the designs myself. Most of the architectural style details are sourced from real cathedrals across Europe.
It displays:
• All saint feast days
• Holidays, holy days, and liturgical periods (Lent, Advent, etc.)
• Periods of time (such as octaves)
• Relevant explanatory information (liturgical colors used throughout the year, figures or places involved in the history of the calendar, etc.)
• Images and latin phrases related to holy days
• And more.
This is done according to the dates used in the traditional Catholic calendar (i.e. the traditional Latin mass, so it's as pre-1960s as possible).
The print quality is as high as I could get anywhere. It's as good as the "fine art" prints I occasionally do. The color quality is 10/10 - it almost looks like paint sitting on top of the paper, the details are all crisp, I'm extremely pleased with how it looks and have only gotten a ton of positive feedback on that. I've sold a ton of these over the years with zero negative feedback on the image quality.
