Ana Drăgan
Hand painted wood icon of Saint Thekla the Protomartyr. Miniature measuring 7x10 cm. Original artwork.
The holy, glorious and right-victorious Protomartyr Thekla (or Thecla) devoted her life to God at a time when all Christians were shunned. Her feast day is celebrated on September 24. The Church has given her the title Equal-to-the-Apostles for her missionary zeal in evangelizing pagans.
