Description
Surrounded by scenes from his life, Saint Pantaleon (c. 275-303) holds a cross and a medicine box, symbols of his power to heal the sick with miraculous cures. Although evidence suggests that a martyr named Pantaleon existed, the stories about his life are considered legendary. This icon, showing Pantaleon with scenes from his life, dates from the 13th century and is in Saint Catherine's Monastery, Mount Sinai.
