Is there anywhere in Europe you have not been? What a glorious statue! Such energy and emotion! Just a great photograph!
A "knight" in shining armour, even the horse is wearing it.
Great old statue.
I take pictures of St.George slaying the dragon wherever I can find them. Such a fascinating subject.
Very interesting. It's quite rare to see a statue of St George & dragon.
Wow! Looks impressive! I like this photo!
Ach... I didn't go in. It was closed as were all the churches when I stopped in Lübeck for a few hours on the drive back to France from the isle of Rügen...
Does the date refer to the original or the copy?
@ ciel - German Wikipedia says:
Ein Gipsabguss befindet sich seit 1924 in der Museumskirche St. Katharinen in Lübeck.
