My first thought would be Vladimir the great
But he's usually depicted with an ushanka-esque hat rather than a helmet
Google defines it as a byzantine general kneeling before and orthodox priest
Byzantium would also make sense
They employed a fair number of Viking mercenaries lol
Related stuff puts the name dimitry of rostov
Which is a priest
Who was born in the 1600's
So the timeline doesn't fit
Yeah, that would put that a fair few hundred years ahead of this picture
Umless he made it
By the 1600s soldiers didn't wear armour or carry huge banners of the Virgin mary
At least I think thats what that is...
The shape of the cross definately suggests it's orthodox rather than catholic
Also the banners
Catholics don't use that kind of iconografy
Yeah, from what I've seen so far @Orc Slayer I reckon the best candidate for this would be Vladimir the great of the Kievan Rus
^
Probably
Also known as St. Vladimir, he was known for christianising the Kievan Rus
I mean
He kinda looks like King Arthur
good bois
God.damn it links are broken again

That Galapagos turtle saw the nukes dropped
At bikini atoll
He saw Groucho Marx
And Amy Schumer in the same lifetime 🤢
Though that being said, there's reportedly a greenland shark alive today that pre-dates henry the eighth according to its size
Isn't that turtle the last of his kind?
Or am I thinking of a different one
Nah, the last one died iirc.
