Holy Martyr Nica of Corinth. Wooden orthodox icon.

Not much is known about the earthly path of the martyr Nica (Victoria). The saint lived in the 3rd century, comprehended the teachings of the Lord under the guidance of the elder Quadratus, adhering to the Orthodox commandments in everyday life.

The events surrounding Nica and other Christians who followed the sermons of Saint Quadratus unfolded in the Greek city of Corinth. It was in these places that the Apostle Peter preached two centuries earlier, who also addressed the local residents (the Corinthians) with two epistles. Corinth was known as a large, densely populated and rich city. Most of its inhabitants were drowning in luxury and carnal pleasures, leading an immoral lifestyle. In Corinth, a future Christian was born, who accepted torture in the name of the Lord God and became known to believers under the name of Nica (Victoria) of Corinth. At that time, paganism was widespread in the city, cultivated by its ruler. Christians were subjected to cruel persecution and terrible public executions. But even in these terrible times, the followers of Orthodoxy did not turn away from God and consciously accepted suffering for the sake of the holy faith.

The icon is made by printing on a wooden board. Paints are mineral, do not fade with time. The thickness of the board is 2 cm. The board is covered with primer by hand. The image is covered with wax. Each icon has a metal mount on the back side so that you can hang the icon on the wall. The icon has no recess, the surface is smooth.

You can buy the icon in three sizes:

  • 13 х 10 centimeters (5,1 x 3,9 inches)
  • 19 х 15 centimeters (7,5 x 5,9 inches)
  • 26 х 21 centimeters (10,2 x 8,3 inches)
