Tiny gold Lord's Prayer engraved in eye of needle by Birmingham artist
An artist who goes to extreme lengths to produce microscopic works has etched The Lord 's Prayer onto a speck of gold, inserted into The Eye of a needle.
Graham Short said he hoped he'd be remembered for his latest creation.
The Birmingham artist has previously produced what is thought to be The World 's tiniest nativity scene and a picture of The Queen on a pinhead.
He uses Beta Blockers to slow his heart while working with a microscope at night to avoid vibrations of traffic.
" If a lorry went past outside it would feel like an earthquake through the microscope, " He Said .
The new engraving consists of 273 letters each 50 microns high, he explained.
" The thickness of a human hair is 100 microns - so each letter is half the width of a human hair. "
Describing the piece as his greatest work to date he added: " It's The One I want to be known for, to be remembered for. "
He Said the piece, worth an estimated £250,000, would be sold One Day but he would be displaying it to schoolchildren first.
" The primary schools are The Best ones, " He Said . " The 15-year-olds aren't impressed - They know it all at that age. "
Mr Short's extreme lengths to stay still while working involve him taping a stethoscope to his chest in order to engrave between heartbeats and also having Botox.
" Every three months I have a course of injections into my eyelids and that ensures there's no distractions from eye nerves or muscles when I'm working, " he told BBC Radio Hereford and Worcester.
" I know it's unusual. "
Another recent work features an engraving The Names of all The Winners of Cheltenham Gold Cup on The Head of a horse-shoe nail.
" Somebody pointed out to me that had I waited until this year's race in four weeks time, it would be 100 years of The Race - so I'm going to hang on and hope Last Year 's winner wins again And Then I won't have to put their name on, " He Said .
