The Four Cardinal Virtues

1541-45
Alabaster
Collégiale Sainte-Waudru, Mons

The alabaster statues of seven virtues were originally part of the rod screen. Dismantled during the Revolution, the sculptures and reliefs from the monument are scattered around the church.

The picture shows the four cardinal virtues: Prudence, Justice, Fortitude, and Temperance.
