Saint Eleutherius

Hand painted icon of Saint Eleutherius, made in Mount Athos, on natural wood. The icon is delivered in a wooden box.

As a bishop in Illyricum, Eleutherios promoted the cause of Christianity with the adroitness of a seasoned campaigner. He witnessed the beheading of his mother, Anthia, during Severus times. He is considered to be the protector of the infants. Saint Eleutherios celebrates on December 15th.
