Icon of Saint Friacre

My original icon painting of Saint Friacre has been faithfully reproduced on this handsome natural wood panel. Panel size is 8" x 10" x 0.625", comes with a predrilled keyhole for easy wall mounting or can sit on a tabletop using included easel.

Saint Fiacre is the patron saint of gardeners. Fiacre a 7th-century Irish monk, earned the right to establish a hermitage and a hospice for the poor after single-handedly clearing an entire forest in one day. Famed for growing many different kinds of vegetables and herbs in his garden in Meaux, France, he made and dispensed many herbal remedies. People pray to him for help with their gardens and with various infirmities due to his legendary skill in healing and his knowledge of medicinal plants.
