The Righteous '''Theodora''' was the wife of Emperor Theophilus the Iconoclast during the middle of the ninth century. She was a strong [[iconodule]] who after the death of her husband overrode his [[iconoclast]]ic policies to finally restore [[veneration]] of [[icon]]s in the Eastern Roman Empire. With her glorification as a [[saint]] the Church remembers her role in this restoration. Her [[feast day]] is [[February 11]].
