Saint George with the Dragon

Saint George with the Dragon
Stockholm, Sweden (SE)
One of Sweden’s most important late‑medieval artworks—created in 1489—the Saint George and the Dragon sculpture in Storkyrkan, Stockholm’s medieval cathedral, is a monumental wood-and-metal group carved by the German sculptor Bernt Notke (or his workshop). It depicts Saint George in full armor, mounted on a rearing horse, striking down the dragon while the rescued princess stands nearby.
