This elegant hand-painted icon honors Saint Victoria of Albitina, a steadfast virgin-martyr of North Africa who courageously bore witness to Christ during the fierce persecutions of the early Church. Crafted in traditional Byzantine style with egg tempera and enriched with authentic 22K gold leaf, the icon is mounted on uniquely hand-carved natural wood—each piece reflecting the sacred strength of the martyr it depicts.
Saint Victoria lived in the 4th century in the Roman province of Africa. Along with fellow believers, she defied imperial orders by attending Christian liturgy, for which she was arrested and executed. Her unwavering faith in the face of death has made her a symbol of spiritual conviction, purity, and bold devotion to Christ.
