Matthias Rauchmiller's clay model (1681) for the statue of Saint John Nepomuk which was placed on the Charles Bridge in Prague in 1683. Its iconography (bearded priest leaning to one side, wearing biretta, holding crucifix, haloed by five stars) became the archetype for later representations of this saint.
