A 20th century carved seated statue of Saint Jerome. An ornately carved with fine detailing, posed seated with a lion at his feet. Saint Jerome sits in the wilderness, carefully removing a thorn from the paw of a very endearing lion – it went on to be his companion. This was a popular subject in medieval art, although Jerome is usually just shown with the lion as a pet, rather than actually treating it. Approx 59cm tall, 25cm x 36cm.
