"Saint
Norbert and Saint Augustine"
(Unanimes)
The
title of this statue is "Unanimes," which is Latin for
"having one soul," or, more broadly, "soul friends."
The scriptural inspiration for this statue is drawn from the bibilical
descriptions of the first apostolic communities in which the members
are portrayed as being unanimes, or "of one heart and one
mind" (Acts of the Apostles 4:32) Throughout the history
of the Order of Premontre, these texts have been taken as the foundational
texts for the Norbertine way of life. This bronze piece is life-sized.
