Saint Philip, who had four daughters that prophesied, was from Caesarea of
Palestine. He preached throughout Samaria; it was he also who met the eunuch of
Candace, the Queen of the Ethiopians, as the eunuch was reading the Prophet
Esaias, and he instructed and baptized him. He reposed in Tralles of Asia Minor
while preaching the Gospel.
The icon reproductions are
created by iconographer monks of various Greek Orthodox monasteries in Greece
and all images are approved replications by the Greek Orthodox Church.
As icons are considered to be the Gospel in image, these images are accurate
and true Orthodox renderings, not second-hand interpretations. The icon
images are mounted on solid wood and protected from tarnish with a varnish
finish that seals in colors and creates a shiny luster.
