Kyiv archangel Michael

 

The archangel St. Michael is the patron saint and symbol of Kyiv, the capital city of Ukraine. A brilliant statue of St. Michael, gilded in gold with a flaming sword stands atop the Lach Gates at Independence Square in Kyiv. I used this as the inspiration for my version in support of the people of Ukraine.
