Saint George and the Dragon icon 8×12 machine embroidery design in Byzantine style.
Icon of Saint George and the Dragon also known as Miracle of Saint George is one of the most popular subjects in early Christian and Byzantine painting.
Legend tells us that in a lake in Lybia lived a dragon that the local people worshipped as a deity.
Many children were sacrificed to appease the dragon. When it came time for the daughter of the king Saint George appeared on a horse.
George arrived at the moment when the dragon was about to swallow the king’s daughter, princess Sabra.
With words: “In the name of The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit”, St. George drew his lance and knocked the dragon to the ground.
His horse then trampled the dragon with its hoofs. The citizens of the town were so impressed with this miracle that they converted to Christianity.
In mythology, combat with a serpent symbolizes a battle of good versus evil.
In Christian art a serpent or dragon is the symbol of the devil. This whole conflict is seen as good triumphing over evil.
Saint George is a highly celebrated saint in both the Western Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Christian churches.
