The statue next to one of the ponds in front of the Jewel Box. I believe it is St Francis of Assisi. I also like the flower baskets on the post... a nice way to add elevation to a garden and a lot easier to plant and water.

From Wikipedia: "He preached: It is the duty of man to protect and enjoy nature as both the stewards of God's creation and as creatures ourselves."
I'm not a religious person but I liked how he basically said we are all creatures.
Legend has it that on his deathbed, St. Francis thanked his donkey for carrying and helping him throughout his life, and his donkey wept.
