Saint Tryphon, Holy Martyr of Apamea (Nicaea). Wooden orthodox icon

This Orthodox icon of Saint Tryphon is based on an original work painted around 1900 by the renowned Russian iconographer Mikhail Dikarev in the Russian Empire. Today, the original icon is preserved in a private collection, and it stands as a refined example of late Russian iconographic tradition, combining spiritual depth with artistic mastery.

🌿 Who is Saint Tryphon?
Saint Tryphon was a Christian martyr of the 3rd century, born in Phrygia (Asia Minor). From his youth, he was known for humility, purity of heart, and a special grace from God. Through prayer, he healed the sick, cast out demons, and helped those in distress, remaining faithful to Christ until his martyrdom.

🕊️ Why Saint Tryphon is depicted with a dove
Saint Tryphon is traditionally shown holding a dove, which symbolizes:

  • Purity and innocence of his soul

  • The Holy Spirit, acting through him in miracles

  • Peace and divine grace, bestowed upon those who pray to him

In Orthodox tradition, the dove also reflects Saint Tryphon’s gentle nature and his closeness to God from childhood.

🌾 What believers pray to Saint Tryphon for

  • A protector of crops, gardens, and vineyards

  • A helper against pests, drought, and natural disasters

  • An intercessor in cases of loss, injustice, and everyday needs

🕯️ Believers turn to Saint Tryphon for material provision, peace in work, and help in difficult circumstances, trusting in his compassionate and swift intercession.
