Icons of the Holy Great-Martyr George
Welcome to the collection dedicated to Saint George the Victory-Bearer, one of Christianity's most courageous saints, whose depiction on horseback slaying a dragon is a powerful symbol of faith's triumph over evil. St. George is deeply revered among Serbs and is celebrated as a Krsna Slava (Patron Saint Day) on two separate dates—Djurdjevdan and Djurdjic.
