"Bishop Saint" is a Baroque sculpture by French artist Pierre Legros II, created between 1685 and 1715. The sculpture, housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, depicts a bishop in full regalia, with intricate details in his clothing and miter. Legros II, known for his skilled rendering of drapery and anatomy, captures the figure's dignity and spirituality with remarkable realism, making this a compelling example of French Baroque sculpture.
