Saint Michael the Archangel

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a sculpture titled "Saint Michael the Archangel". The sculpture is a light-colored stone figure with a rough texture. The figure has short hair parted in the middle and styled on either side of the head. The figure wears a long robe with a sash across the chest. The figure holds a shield in the left hand and a spear or staff in the right, although the right arm is mostly missing. The figure stands on a base with what appears to be a lion or other animal at its feet. The sculpture sits on a blue platform against a dark blue wall. The overall appearance suggests an older piece of art.
