St. Cuthbert was born in Dunbar, Scotland in 634. He decided to become a monk after seeing a vision on the night in 651 that Aidan died, but he seems to have experienced some period of military service beforehand. He was made guest-master at the new monastery at Ripon, but had to return with Bishop Eata of Hexham to Melrose when Bishop Wilfrid was given the monastery instead. At 662 he was made prior at Melrose, and 665 went as prior to Lindisfarne. In 684 he was made Bishop of Lindisfarne, but in 686 he resigned and returned at his hermitage as he felt he was about to die. He died in 687 after a painful illness. His feast day is on March 20 and is the patron saint of Northumbria and Diocese of Hexham and Newcastle.

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.
