Statue of Infant of Prague
Overview
A statue of the Infant of Prague.
Reportedly formerly stored in the 'Infant of Prague' dormitory in St Joseph's Orphanage.
The statue wears a “cushion crown” similar to the one bestowed on the original by Pope Pius Xi (which was later changed in 2009).
Photos indicate that a similar statue was also present in the foyer of St Anne’s Hospital.
