About This Design

Russian Icon of St. George and the Dragon Poster

Russian Icon of St. George and the Dragon Poster

Print of a Traditional Russian Christian Icon. This Medieval Russian icon depicts St. George Slaying the Dragon. Saint George is the Patron Saint of soldiers, boy scouts, cavalry, chivalry, farmers, field workers, butchers, horses, riders, saddlers, and archers. He is also the patron of England, Aragon, Catalonia, Georgia, Lithuania, Palestine, Portugal, Germany, Greece, Moscow, Istanbul, Genoa and Venice. The most commonly held belief is that George was of noble birth and served as a tribune in the Roman army. It is believed that he protested against the persecution of the Christians by the Emporer Diocletion; an opinion for which he was beheaded, making him a martyr. Several sources propose that the legend of Saint George and the Dragon is just an allegory for this story as Diocletian is often referred to in ancient texts as "the dragon". Saint George became recognised as a saint in the 10th Century due to the many miracles attributed to him. He was officially named a Patron Saint by the Pope in the 14th Century but his feast day was removed in 1969.

My Bible verse postcard, turned out excellent. I love it and have it already framed. It was so reasonably priced for something done so well. Thank you to Zazzle and the artist! I thought it looked exactly like what I ordered. Perfect.

Poster is printed clearly, good quality . Inclusive of many prints . The shipping was the problem. Box was flimsy and item got bent.. only suggestion would have been to put in a canister or mark fragile. Printing was exactly as shown

I am a fan of Ravens and needed to have a poster of my favourite bird. The image quality is sharp.
