Saint Vincent Ferrer and Saint Procopius, Religious statue on Charles Bridge, Prague, Czech Republic
The memorial features Saint Vincent Ferrer blessing a sinner while Saint Procopius stands victoriously above a devil, accompanied by symbolic figures.
Ferdinand Brokoff crafted this baroque statue in 1712 under the patronage of Count Romedius Josef František Thun for the Charles Bridge collection.
The statue combines a Spanish Dominican preacher and a Czech Benedictine monk, representing the religious connections between Western and Eastern Europe.
The memorial stands on the south side of Charles Bridge, allowing visitors to examine detailed religious symbolism and decorative elements.
The pedestal includes three supporting figures depicting a Turkish person, a Jewish person, and a devil, reflecting medieval European social perspectives.
