Russian Icon - Saint Michael the Archangel Fighting Against the Satan in brass revetment cover and kiot shadow frame

The Holy Archangel Michael is one of the most celebrated of the Angels called the Archistrategos, or chief commander, of all the bodiless powers. According to the Holy Scripture and Tradition, he has interceded for humanity multiple times and continues to serve as the Defender of the Faith. Saint Michael is most often invoked for protection from invasion by enemies and from civil war, and for the defeat of adversaries on the field of battle. Saint Michael is depicted full-figured striking the winged demon depicted on the lower right with a fiery sword.
