A rider on a rearing horse drives his lance downward into a dragon writhing beneath the hooves, with rocks and a low landscape filling the ground behind, the whole set within a pierced border of scrolled leaves and open lobes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGeorge was a soldier of the Roman army who died for the faith at Lydda, and the dragon he is shown killing became the Church's plainest picture of courage against evil — the one who rides at the thing everyone else has fled. He is patron of soldiers and of England, Portugal and Catalonia, and this Spanish original gives him the deep relief and crowded ground that Spanish medalists loved. Long wear has left the surfaces smooth and rubbed, and the reproduction keeps that softness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe medal was faithfully reproduced from an antique original and cast in the USA using a traditional fine-detail casting process that preserves its vintage character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtisan-cast from an antique original\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinished by hand, so every piece is subtly unique.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuy the medal alone, or add an optional chain or cord necklace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdd a cord or chain to have it arrive assembled and ready to wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArrives in a deluxe velour jewelry box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Equatoria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48943531131065,"sku":"3c3-179-B","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0647\/9177\/3369\/files\/3c3-179-B.png?v=1787688743","url":"https:\/\/catholicshop.com\/products\/vintage-bronze-st-george-and-the-dragon-medal","provider":"CatholicShop.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
