For just $188.00 The icon "Agnia Martyr" depicts us an Orthodox saint, who is venerated not only by the Eastern, but also by the Western Church. Several icons were dedicated to her, as well as the famous painting of Hussep Rieber “Saint Inessa”. The painting depicts a martyr who does not renounce holy faith, even in the face of shame and mortal danger. Saint Agnia was born in ancient Rome. Her parents raised their daughter in the Christian faith. Almost nothing is known of the martyr's early childhood. The tragic events in the life of St. Agnia occurred during the reign of Emperor Diocletian, when the girl was only twelve years old. Saint Dmitry of Rostov describes Saint Agnia as a noble girl with a beautiful face. The girl was so beautiful that Agnia decided to devote her beauty to the Heavenly Bridegroom, refusing all earthly youths. Saint Agnia loved Jesus Christ with all her heart, placing love in her heart immediately after Holy Baptism. Once, a young man from a wealthy and noble family came to Saint Agnia who wanted to marry her. The martyr rejected the young man, and he for a long time tried to find out why Saint Agnia did not want to be his wife. Upon learning that Saint Agnia honors Christian laws, he told his Simon Fron, who decided to persuade the saint to abandon the Christian faith and go to paganism. He even allowed Saint Agnia to become a vestal in order to preserve his virginity. However, the girl did not begin to worship the "soulless stone", since the Christian faith lived in her heart. Symphronius no longer thought about his son. He decided at all costs to discourage Saint Agnia from the Christian faith. But the girl was adamant. Then Symphronius promised to send Saint Agnia to an obscene house, where she would be given for reproach. The girl was stripped in order to lead her naked throughout the city, but by the will of the Lord, Saint Agnia immediately grew long hair that hid all her nudity. Being imprisoned, an angel of the Lord came ...
