(The superscription “We found Messias”, would suggest that the figure is a depiction of the apostle St Andrew. However, he is almost always shown with a saltire cross or emblems of fishing. The words along with the tree trunk, suggests the figure may perhaps be intended as a depiction of the apostle Nathanael, or possibly Philip.)
