St. Michael, the Archangel, a statue by the sculptor Giulio Guiggi on a holy water font of Santa Maria del Soccorso.
On the other font we can see St. Gabriel, the Archangel, in a sculpture by Vitaliano De Angelis.

How very unusual adornment for baptismal fonts.
They're very different, but quite dramatic!
Beautiful artwork.
The second one is very striking and different, I like it a lot.
Scary for a kid screaming at the font, I bet.
Birdman - You are right! My mistake, now corrected: these are not baptismal fonts, but holy water fonts at the entrance of the church...
St. Michael is always popular for artists. :)
Dramatic beautiful pieces.
They are so handsome.
We could use the help of a few archangels over here.
