Item Description: Translate description
A powerful devotional artifact dating to the 17th century, this medium-sized hand-carved wooden altar statue likely represents Saint Francis of Assisi, identifiable by his simple monastic robe and serene expression. Though the arms are missing, common in centuries-old devotional statuary, the figure retains great reverence and presence.

Such ecclesiastical carvings were created for use in churches, chapels, or home altars, often in colonial Latin America or Southern Europe. Their wear and losses are part of their journey, tokens of centuries of veneration.

This piece hails from the Samuel Presley Nesmith Jr. Texas Museum of Military History Collection (2020) and embodies the spiritual and artistic legacy of early Christian craftsmanship.
