This Saint George on horseback slaying the dragon statue captures the decisive moment of the battle. Riding a rearing white horse, the saint points his lance towards the dragon lying on a rocky base.

Measuring 20 × 14 × 10 cm, it offers a striking visual presence while remaining easy to display in a home, office or prayer space.

What does Saint George and the dragon symbolise?

Saint George was a Christian martyr traditionally believed to have lived at the beginning of the fourth century. According to tradition, this soldier refused to renounce his faith despite imperial orders. His courage and faithfulness led to widespread devotion in both Eastern and Western Churches. He is notably regarded as the patron saint of knights, soldiers and scouts.

The famous battle with the dragon belongs to medieval tradition. It represents more than a spectacular fight: it symbolises the victory of good over evil, faith over fear and courage over injustice.

The dragon can evoke trials, temptations or fears that appear impossible to overcome. Saint George does not turn away: he moves forward and acts with determination. His lance symbolises a will directed towards what is right, while his armour recalls the inner strength required to remain faithful to one’s convictions.

The white horse may evoke purity of intention and movement towards the good. The red cloak recalls the martyr’s courage and self-giving. The scene therefore invites each person to face their own “dragons” with faith, clarity and perseverance.
