Carved in the round, our Saint George in armor has a black and gold patina. Mounted on a prancing horse, Saint George strikes down the dragon with his spear.
He brings the beast down to earth, but does not kill it. The dragon's mastery of the earth is where it belongs.
A fine allegory of the struggle each of us must wage to overcome our weaknesses and dominate our passions, without destroying who we are. The search for balance for each individual and for humanity as a whole.
The crowned Virgin is kneeling on a rock at the back of the stage. She accompanies Saint George with her prayers.
The antique ensemble is set on a terrace supported by four clawed feet embellished with oval stripes.
