Uniate/Lemko saint

[Alexander.Boguslawski at ROLLINS.EDU]

Dear Margarita (and anyone else interested),
swietego Dymitra is genitive of Swiety Dymitr, St. Demetrios (Agios Dimitrios),
the patron saint of Thessalonika.  The other St. Demetrios, of Tyro (Tiron) is
much less popular or frequent in South Polish iconography (and in the iconography of other Orthodox countries as well).  I hope this helps,
