Product Specifications

• Craftsmanship: This byzantine icon is a lithography with a double layer of varnish for vivid colors and water resistance depicting the holy, glorious and right-victorious Great Martyr Panteleimon (born Pantaleon) the Unmercenary Healer was martyred under the reign of Emperor Maximian (ca. 305 A.D.). His feast day is celebrated on July 27. This icon is an exact copy of the byzantine original and a God-inspired work that follows the Athonite technique, which gives it its religious and aesthetic value.

The Significance of Saint Panteleimon

His parents were Eustorgius of Nicomedia, a pagan, and Saint Eubula (March 30). They named him Pantaleon, which means in all things like a lion, but when he converted to Christianity, he changed his name to Panteleimon, which means all-merciful. He learned about Christianity from the priest who later baptized him, Saint Hermolaus. Hermolaus was living with two other priests, Hermippus and Hermocrates; the three were "survivors of the massacre of 20,000 Christians in 303 (December 28)."
