Title |
Icon of Saint George Slaying the Dragon |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: This embroidery probably hung as an offering beneath a larger, painted image of St. George. It depicts two legendary exploits of the 4th-century Christian martyr. Seated on the saddle behind him is a boy whom George miraculously delivered from Muslim captivity and returned home. At the same time, the saint is saving a princess from the dragon that is about to devour her. |
