Saint George and the Dragon replica at Köpmantorget, Bronze and granite replica statue in Köpmantorget, Stockholm, Sweden.
The statue portrays Saint George mounted on horseback, engaging in combat with a dragon while a princess stands nearby observing the battle.
Alfred Ohlson created this bronze replica in 1912, reproducing the medieval wooden sculpture from 1490 that stands in Stockholm's Storkyrkan cathedral.
The statue represents the Christian legend of Saint George, a knight who defeated a dragon to rescue a princess and convert a town to Christianity.
Located in Gamla stan's Köpmantorget square, the statue stands near numerous restaurants, shops, and historical buildings in Stockholm's old town district.
The statue incorporates both bronze and granite materials, marking a departure from the original wooden version that used elk antlers for dragon features.
