A modern icon
A modern interpretation of the traditional orthodox image by Brother Aidan, which hangs in Aberhafesb church. St Gwynog is shown in a dark cassock, the colour of humility, and holds the scriptures with his garment. Gwynog was born, the son of Gildas ('a most ancient British historian'), in Wales in 511. His father stirred up the wrath of the Welsh princes and fled to Brittany with Gwynog. Gwynog became Bishop of Vannes, and died in Angers in 580.
