Description

A fine miniature jewellery design is reflected in this pendant icon representing a Guardian Angel with open wings. The Angel is holding an eight-sided Orthodox cross and a round medallion with an image of the Great Martyr Saint George the Victorious. The Christian saint, who in the Russian lands is revered as the patron saint of soldiers and farmers, is depicted in armour, sitting upon a warhorse and slaying the dragon squirming under the horse’s hooves.
