Saint John of Capistrano mug

This Saint John of Capistrano mug can be a gift for a John or someone familiar with his history within the Franciscan family. The painting and milestones on the reverse recall the Italian preacher. Accompany it with a few words about a reading, a community or the person with whom you share an interest in his life.

Saint John of Capistrano in a preaching scene

The painting shows the saint in a Franciscan habit, speaking from a pulpit before a crowd gathered in a square. The composition connects the image with his activity as a preacher and may appeal to someone who appreciates narrative religious scenes. The design lets you dedicate the gift to his memory and explain what you had in mind when choosing it.

Before entering the Friars Minor, John studied law and held judicial and administrative responsibilities. His Franciscan life was linked with the reform of the observance and collaboration with Bernardino of Siena. His legal training influenced his attention to rules and the life of communities. This background can make the gift meaningful to someone interested in the religious history of fifteenth-century Europe.

Capestrano, Ilok and his canonisation on the reverse

The mug includes his birth in Capestrano in 1386, death in Ilok in 1456 and canonisation in 1690. His name and the 23 October commemoration complete the prepared text. These details accompany the painting to recall the saint on his feast day and share a reminder of his life with its recipient.

Before ordering, you can rotate the composition in the 3D viewer to examine the image and text from different angles. Selecting Both sides displays two opposing views of the same design, with rotation still available. Choose the handle orientation for a right-handed or left-handed user. The number of mugs you wish to receive is selected separately from the views shown.

We print the composition by sublimation. Choose the printed text language in the customiser and check it in the preview. Choose this gift for the name, history or devotion that connects you with its recipient, and accompany it with a few personal words about why you thought of them. Our collection of religious mugs includes other figures and celebrations, so you can dedicate each gift to someone in your family or community.
