Manually painted wood icon of Saint Demetrius of Thessaloniki. Miniature measuring 7x10 cm. Original artwork.
The holy, glorious and right-victorious Great-martyr (Greek: Μεγαλομάρτυς) Demetrius of Thessaloniki the Myrrh-streamer (Greek Μυροβλήτης) (also Demetrios) is one of the most popular saints in the Orthodox world. He was martyred around the year 306 in Thessalonica, and his cult rapidly grew during the Middle Ages, when he was regarded as the first recognized patron and protector of the city, militarily as well as spiritually. His feast day is celebrated on October 26. The Serbian Orthodox Church commemorates the Saint as a Mitar having a feast of Mitrovan on November 8.

Mica bijuterie
O icoana splendida care incanta prin frumusete si grija pentru detaliu.
Minunată
Stilul în care este realizată iconița are darul de a evidenția virtuțile definitorii ale acestui mare mărturisitor al credinței creștine: puritatea sufletească și bărbăția (curajul) de a înfrunta cu bucurie moartea pentru Hristos. Felicitări pentru originalitate!
