Saint Florian Firefighter Fireman Statue Figurine Bradford Exchange

Saint Florian Firefighter Statue
Bradford Exchange

Commander of the imperial army in the
Roman province of Noricum, St. Florian was also responsible for building
firefighting brigades. He is credited with organizing and training an
elite group of soldiers whose sole duty was to fight fires.

St.
Florian’s powers are still invoked for protection by firefighters, EMT
workers, chimneysweeps, and families seeking safety from fire and
drowning.

Overwhelming
devotion to the divine protection of this revered saint inspires the St.
Florian: Protector of Firefighters Cold-cast Bronze Sculpture from The
Bradford Exchange.

Heroically
sized at 14 inches high, this commanding sculpture is expertly
hand-crafted of burnished, cold-cast bronze. The gallant soldier and
firefighter-turned-saint forever vanquishes the flames of danger and
fear as he plants his protective flag of faith. Hand-painting and
burnishing bring out the movement and drama of this exceptionally
conceived sculpture.

Below,
St. Florian’s cross boldly displays symbols and words dear to fire and
rescue workers. A mahogany-finished base with golden title plaque makes
for a gallery-quality presentation—at a fraction of the cost of
traditional bronze.

Measures 14″ (35.5 cm).
