Saint Francis Xavier

The face and hands of this polychrome and gilt image of Saint Francis Xavier are made of ivory while the rest is made in wood. He is shown standing on a simple wooden pedestal with outstretched arms probably holding a crucifix (now lost) in his right hand as is usually depicted in images of the Saint. He wears a gilt-edged white surplice over a gold-bordered black cassock along with a gilt painted stole around his neck. This image of Saint Francis Xavier is also shown wearing a silver crown-like radiating halo
