Large, hand-carved wooden statue of St. Paul the Apostle, early 1900s. 37 lb, 37" tall and 11" at its widest. St. Paul the Apostle was one of the most prominent early leaders of the Christian church and is the patron saint of London, England, but this statue of him is probably from the Western hemisphere, with book in left hand and sword in right, rather rustically hand-carved from a single piece of wood with glass eyes inserted, several coats of paint applied and lost to time, now mostly tannish gray in color, fully intact but with natural crack in back (just how the tree grew).
