Statue of St. Anthony of Padua
Address: K Nemocnici 64, 741 01 Nový Jičín
Cultural Monument Register No. ÚSKP 46570/8-2087
The statue of St. Anthony of Padua is mounted on a four-sided stepped pedestal. The main part of the pedestal is slightly compressed, with indicated side volutes, with an inscription and a chronogram in a simple cartouche on the front surface. The base is finished with a moulded cornice and a cover plate modelled by a bell tower. On the reverse of the base's base is an inscription testifying to the repair. The saint is dressed in traditional monastic robes, standing in a slight contrapposto, carrying a small baby Jesus on his right forearm. The heads of both figures are complemented by metallic gilded ray-shaped halos.
