The color in the upper corners is actually the background of my website, and is not part of the icon, just in case anyone was wondering.

I don't remember for sure, and I sold it a while ago, so I can't measure it, but I believe it was about 22 inches tall.

No it was one that I painted for a lady at my church. She saw the one that you bought when I had it in the show at St. Vincent last december and wanted a smaller one to give to her husband as a birthday present because his birthday is St. Andrei's feast day. So imagine the one you bought shrunk down to about 10 inches tall, and that's what it was....
