Abstract

The statue of Saint Helena, missing the attribute, was made for the altar where it is still located and, before 1842, it was transferred with it to the Morsztyn chapel from the Church of the Holy Spirit in Wieliczka. It was created around the mid-18th century, as evidenced by the sigmoidal line of the body, the theatrical gesture of the left hand and the characteristic arrangement of folds of robes.
