Here’s another of print & sketch. St. Edmund’s Wolf, protecting the severed head of the King after a Viking attack, until it is miraculously joined with his body again. Quite the story.

20 November 869: Edmund the Martyr ("St Edmund"), the #Saxon King of the East Angles, was killed by #Viking raiders. #History #StEdmund
Today's rather late #SaintsonSaturday takes us to #Kimbolton Church in #Cambridgeshire for this (slightly defaced) and unusually armoured #StEdmund complete with the arrows of his martyrdom... The paintings probably date from 15th century
This morning for #stainedglassSunday a #StChristopher from the too often overlooked church of #StThomas and #StEdmund in #Salisbury, #Wiltshire.
There's more to Salisbury than a cathedral, just don't tell the #GRU
The glass is c15th century and the church boasts some interesting wall paintings too.

St. Edmund’s story is uniquely English, writes @gardeningkate.bsky.social. He’s a symbol of resilience against invaders. Isn’t it time he joined St. George as a patron saint?

Today,Wednesday the 20th of November, is the Feast of St. Edmund, King of East Anglia from c855 until the 20th of November 869. Edmund became patron saint of England, venerated in the early and high Middle Ages, until replaced in the 1500s by St. George. #eastanglia #stedmund #patronsaint #history
Happy St Edmund’s Day! Did you know he was England’s original patron saint - not St. George?
Kate Viscardi explains how his story is woven into East Anglian history.
We should re-adopt him and bring a much-needed November 20th holiday!

Would love to hear your talk on #StEdmund - is there any chance of a hybrid or online version, please, Francis?
