Item description from the seller
St George was revered as a military martyr whose cult was based at Lydda. The legend of his triumph over the dragon probably dates to the twelfth century. The small figure behind the saint represents a Christian slave whom the saint rescued. The saint, his armour and horse stylistically resemble comparable features of fifteenth and sixteenth-century icons at Mount Sinai and on Cyprus.
