EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic Russian icon, "St George Killing the Dragon". Depicting a powerful scene of good versus evil, this artwork portrays St George, the Patron Saint of England and Portugal, in his triumphant battle against a mythical creature - the dragon. The painting beautifully captures the intensity of this epic struggle as St George fearlessly rides on horseback, armed with a lance. His colorful clothes and flowing cloak add to his heroic presence while symbolizing his unwavering faith in Christianity. The artist's skillful use of tempera on wood brings out every detail, from the intricate portrayal of St George to the majestic horses that accompany him. Belonging to the artistic school of Novgorod and dating back to either the 3rd or 4th century, this portrait holds immense historical significance. Its gold accents further enhance its religious symbolism and serve as an exquisite testament to Russian artistry. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded not only of St George's bravery but also of humanity's eternal struggle between light and darkness. This print serves as a timeless reminder that even in our darkest moments, there is always hope for triumph over adversity through faith and courage.
