Description
English: A roller print (single sided) four color wax print from Nigeria, in green, gold, red & black on white. It commemorate's Pope John Paul II's second visit to the country in 1998. It's dated "March 21st - 23rd 1998". Selvage reads "Nortex Guaranteed Super Print" with no design number. Includes the original yellow paper tag that reads the same. Design features a circular framed portrait of the Pope with his name on scroll, a dove shining light upon him from above (signifing the Christian Holy Spirit). Of almost equal size is a portrait of "Blessed Cyprian M[ichael] Iwene Tansi" (1903-1964) an Igbo Roman Catholic priest and Cistersian from near Onitsha, Anambra State. He was Beatified by the Pope on March 22, 1998, in Oba. A step to Sainthood, which would make him the first Nigerian and West African Roman Caholic Saint. Fr. Iwene Tansi is shown in a frame map of Nigeria, with "Beatification" beneath, and the "Holy Spirit" light shining onto him as well. The field is filled with small swirl paterns, and an artificle crinkle pattern is added to the edges.
