This reverent hand-painted icon honors Saint Emilianus of Trevi, an early Christian bishop and martyr known for his steadfast witness to Christ during a time of persecution. Created in the traditional Byzantine style using egg tempera and adorned with genuine 22K gold leaf, the icon is mounted on asymmetrically hand-carved natural wood—symbolizing his spiritual strength and unshakable faith.
Saint Emilianus served as bishop of Trevi in Umbria, Italy, during the 3rd century. He fearlessly preached the Gospel in the face of Roman opposition and was ultimately martyred for refusing to renounce his faith. His holy life and death have inspired generations of Christians to live with courage and conviction.
