Statue of Saint George, Prague Castle
The equestrian statue of Saint George is installed at Prague Castle in Prague, Czech Republic. The bronze sculpture was created in 1373 by Hungarian sculptors Martin and George of Kolozsvár. It was originally erected in Buda castle and it was brought to Prague later, either during Louis I as a gift to emperor Charles IV, or during Rudolf II to protect it from the Turkish wars.
The statue was made with the lost-wax casting method, and was turned into a fountain statue in the 16th century.
