Wooden Icon of Saint Pope Leo I the Great Defender of Rome & Christian Faith
🕊️ Exquisite Orthodox Icon of Saint Pope Leo the Great
This beautifully crafted wooden icon honors Saint Leo the Great (Pope Leo I, 440–461 AD)—one of the most influential Church Fathers and a fearless defender of Christian orthodoxy. A pivotal figure in early Christianity, he shaped theological doctrine and saved Rome from destruction through his wisdom and faith.

Protector of Rome: Persuaded Attila the Hun (452 AD) and Genseric the Vandal (455 AD) to spare the city from devastation.
Theological Brilliance: Left 100+ sermons and 140 letters—cornerstones of Christian teaching.
