St Andrew the Apostle
The first apostle Jesus called, and the brother who brought Peter to him.
About this statue
Andrew was a fisherman, and a disciple of John the Baptist before he followed Jesus. He then went to find his brother Simon Peter (John 1). Tradition says he was crucified on an X-shaped cross at Patras in Greece, and that is why the cross is his sign. His feast falls on 30 November.
He stands with a long beam of his cross at his side and a scroll in his other hand.
This is one of the twelve 11-foot apostles made for the facade of the Gunadala Matha Shrine, Vijayawada.

- Colours
- Any statue can be made in any colour, for indoors or outdoors: in a natural finish (in colour) or a stone finish (one colour, such as white or marble).
