Saint George – Designer T-shirt
Many legends grew up about this Saint, but the most famous one is about his fight with the dragon. It happened when St. George was stationed with the Roman army Salone in Libya, North Africa. In that area a Dragon which was described as a huge crocodile with scaled wings, had eaten so many of the country folks around Salone that the remaining inhabitants fled to the town and took shelter behind its walls. There, the dragon was positioned outside the city gates, and nobody could get in or out. In order to keep the beast away from the walls, two sheep were tethered every day, some distance away. This worked well, until they ran out of sheep and the miserable people could not think of any other alternative but to sacrifice one child every day.
Saint Symbolism
Christianity has used symbolism from its very beginnings. Each saint has a story and a reason why he or she led an exemplary life. Symbols have been used to tell these stories throughout the history of the Church. In order, to identify with them, Christian saints are traditionally represented by a symbol or iconic motif. The study of these forms is a part of iconography in art history.
