St. Dorothy was a beautiful young virgin who had pledged her life to celibacy and prayer, but was ordered to marry a pagan and offer sacrifices to the false gods. She refused and was tried and convicted of being a Christian, and the local prefect named Sapricus had her put to death. Dorothy of Caesarea is regarded as the patroness of gardeners, due to her virginal attribute of a wreath of roses. On her feast on 6 February trees are blessed. Saint Dorothy is also patroness of brewers, brides, florists, midwives, newlyweds and of the village of Pescia in Italy.

Care Instructions

My handpainted icons are made from natural materials that constantly interact with their environment. These above materials are sensitive to extreme light, heat and humidity.

Handling the icons should also be done cautiously; oils from our hands can stain their shiny surface. Dust can softly be removed with a pure white cloth.

Following the above simple instructions will guarantee that your icon will age gracefully through time and will be enjoyed by the generations to come.
