St. George and the dragon


There is a strong tradition of presenting the St. George (in Croatian: Sv. Juraj) killing a dragon in Croatia. But this sculpture that I took in Radićeva Street just few meters from famous Stone gate is presenting him in a moment when he has already  killed the dragon which is not so common. More so, St. George and his horse seem quite sad looking down at the dead dragon.
