St. Francis has always been associated with animals and this inspirational St. Francis with Deer statue represents that perfectly. The St. Francis statue shows him in a tender pose stroking the neck of a little deer and holding a book. The 'weather' finish of the St. Francis statue is a white-wash finish with revealed natural stone. The St. Francis statue stands 22 inches high so would be perfect in any area of a garden or corner of the yard. It would be especially nice near a bench where a person could sit and meditate on St. Francis in the outdoors that he loved. The St. Francis with Deer statue would be a lovely gift for the gardener in your life or the person who takes pride in his or her yard.
