Lovely bronze sculpture depicting St George slaying the Dragon. When St. George came to Libya, a hermit told him that there was a dragon who demanded the sacrifice of young maidens, and now only the Princess was left. St. George was determined to save the Princess. He struck the dragon, but the scales were so hard that his spear broke into thousand pieces. Finally, he pierced the dragon under the wing, where there were no scales, and the dragon fell to its feet. Height 21cm, width 13cm & depth 9cm. This is a genuine hot cast bronze finished on a solid marble base, do not confuse this with cheap 'cold cast' resin bronzes Please visit my eBay shop where you will find many more bronzes.
