Saint Francis of Assisi Figurine with Scroll

This is a small, cast resin or composite stone figurine depicting Saint Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and the environment. The figurine measures approximately 3 to 4 inches in height and features a grey, stone-like matte finish designed to mimic weathered limestone or pewter. Saint Francis is depicted in his traditional monk's habit with a tonsure hairstyle and a beard, holding a large upright scroll. The scroll is inscribed with the text 'All things Bright and Beautiful,' referencing the popular Anglican hymn. Surrounding the saint are various animals, including a bird perched on the corner of the scroll and other small forest creatures nestled at his feet near a birdbath bowl. The craftsmanship shows a moderate level of detail in the draped robes and facial features, suggesting a mass-produced religious giftware item from the late 20th century. The condition appears fair to good, with some visible dust in the recessed areas and a slight 'pitted' texture which is likely an intentional part of the casting process to give it an aged appearance. There are no obvious maker's marks visible on the front, and the edges show typical softened casting lines.
