This hand-painted icon on wood depicts Saint Helen the Empress, traditionally credited with the finding of relics of the cross of Christ. She is commemorated each year on May 21.

Original artwork by Ana Drăgan (DAM), painted on wood in tempera colours.

The holy and right-believing Empress Helen (also Helena and Elena), Equal to the Apostles (c. 248 – c. 329), was the mother of Emperor Saint Constantine the Great. Her feast day is on May 21, together with her son.

She is traditionally credited with the finding of relics of the cross of Christ, and with finding the remains of the Three Wise Men, which currently reside in the Shrine of the Three Kings at Cologne Cathedral.
