Holy Martyr Queen Shushanika Orthodox Icon Jigsaw Puzzle

Holy Martyr Queen Shushanik was a Christian Armenian woman living in the 5th century who was tortured to death by her husband Varsken in Georgia. She died defending her right to profess Christianity and, thus, is regarded as a martyr. Her martyrdom is described in her confessor Jacob’s hagiographic work, the oldest extant work of Georgian language literature. The hagiography details Shushanik's extensive resistance to imprisonment, isolation, torture and cruelty. Please note: Most of the icons are very old. If the image is increased more than we have it, the image might get distorted. We do not print, manufacture or mail any of the products.
