This beautiful icon is said to be from the mid-13th Century and the Greek inscriptions confirm it to be St George, a Christian crusader who was likely to have been an officer in the Roman army. In the icon, St George is seen on the journey to return a small boy to his home across the Aegean Sea after rescuing him from his captors. St George is well known for being depicted slaying a dragon but this imagery first appeared around 500 years after his death!
