In this handmade lithography with double varnish with gold tones to ensure waterproof properties and long lasting in time, we have the representation of St Eugenios of Trebizond


Saint Eugenios or Eugene was martyred under Diocletian and a cult devoted to him developed in Trebizond. His feast day is 21 January. Eugenios along with the martyrs Candidus, Valerian and Aquila was persecuted during the reign of Diocletian (284-305) and Maximian (305-311). The four hid in the mountains above Trebizond, but were eventually found and brought before the regimental commander Lycius.

A monastery dedicated to him existed in Trebizond: Rosenqvist identifies it consisted of a structure on Mount Minthrion with an associated church, and a metochion inside the city walls. There is evidence that the monastery was in existence at least as early as the ninth century; a typikon composed in 1346 provides details of the monastic community's life.[5]


According to the Orthodox Church in America, his prayer is thus:


Your holy martyr Eugene, O Lord, Through his sufferings has received an incorruptible crown from You, our God.

For having Your strength, he laid low his adversaries, And shattered the powerless boldness of demons.
