Byzantine Hand Painted Icon of Saint Joseph the Betrothed.
Saint Joseph was the adoptive father of Jesus Christ and the husband of the Virgin Mary. He worked as a carpenter in Nazareth and was present at the Nativity of Jesus Christ in Bethlehem.
When Herod launched a persecution against the infants, Saint Joseph accompanied Mary and Jesus to Egypt, away from danger.
