This Saint was of high birth among the Goths beyond the Danube River. He was
taken by Athanaric, pagan ruler of the Goths, and after being tortured, was
burned to death for his confession of Christ. According to some, this took
place during the reign of Saint Constantine the Great; according to others,
under the Emperor Gratian.
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.
