Religious embroidery is any picture depicting Biblical scenes, illustrating the worship of God, religious objects - cathedrals, churches and monasteries, as well as plots of Buddhist, Hindu, Chinese, Jewish, Islamic art associated with religious beliefs or rituals. Such counted cross stitch kits most often depict embroidered figures of Jesus, Mary, Popes, reproductions of religious paintings. In a word, any embroidery in which a religious message can be traced. Embroidered religious pictures are the eternal decoration of private houses and churches. Cross-stitching a religious image for some people is an additional way to learn about faith. When embroidering churches, temples and cathedrals, you get protection from evil forces, creating a kind of amulet. Indeed, among our ancestors, monasteries served not only as a haven for believers, but also as protection. Such embroidery should be started after the morning prayer with pure thoughts. It doesn't matter if you are embroidering Vladimir or St. Isaac's Cathedral, or a Muslim mosque, your heart and thoughts should be directed to God.
Biblical scenes, both in painting and in embroidery, are as realistic as possible. They describe scenes from the Bible, but are not icons. "The Last Supper", "Sistine Madonna", Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel frescoes are the most recognizable paintings of this trend.
