About the sculpture
Saint Fiacre holds a book in his right hand and a spade in his left. He is the patron saint of gardeners.
Saints are the heroes and heroines of Christian faith. In the 14th and 15th centuries, they were a popular subject for alabaster carvings. Religious themes penetrated private life, so devotional images of saints were sculpted not only for church interiors, but also for individuals to contemplate within the privacy of their homes.
