He lived and martyred during Maximian’s years (286 – 305 AD). He was educated in medicine and was literate in Christian faith by the elder Ermolaus, priest of the Church of Nicomedia. Known for his miracles by the power of his faith, the occasion stood for him to testify and be killed, after he first persuaded all the soldiers present in his martyrdom to believe in Christ. Once the executioner laid out his sword to cut off the head of the Saint, the sword bent and the iron melted like wax. It is said that from his wound he ran milk and the tree of the olive tree that had been tied to him suddenly bore fruit. For the dimension 29x23cm the time of production process - art is 2 weeks . .
