It is a hagiographic icon at the end of the 15th century by an unknown hagiographer in Chandakas, depicting Saint George on horseback killing a winged dragon with his spear. It is one of the most popular miracles of the saint, which occurred in the eastern province of Antalya, in the city of Alaya, under the reign of Selvios Christianomachos. In this city there was a terrible dragon that every day grabbed and devoured people or animals. The king failed to kill the dragon and with his command, each family would have to send their own child as a sacrifice to the dragon. When his daughter was captured, George the Great, who was the head of Diocletian's military unit, offered to kill the dragon on the condition that everyone, including the king and princess, convert to Christianity. After the extermination of the dragon, St. George called Bishop Alexander who baptized all the people, including the king and his princes, for a total of forty-five thousand people.
