Wood sculpture of a Franciscan monk standing in prayer as if he had just walked from Greyfriars, the Franciscan monastery, whose tower (Image]) remains nearby on St James’ Street. The monk stands at the besides path and between trees on the Broad Walk, looking towards the Red Mount Chapel (Image]), a pilgrim’s chapel built in 1485 as a wayside chapel on the pilgrimage to Walsingham.
