Two weathered sandstone statues are observed through a protective dark metal grille composed of horizontal and vertical bars. The scene is situated in Strasbourg, France, specifically within a historic religious building like the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Strasbourg, where such medieval artifacts are preserved.

The statue on the left portrays a standing male figure, possibly a bishop or king, with a beard, wearing a crown or miter and draped ecclesiastical vestments. He holds an object resembling a book in his left hand, and his right hand is raised with an open palm.

The statue on the right depicts a standing figure, identifiable as a representation of Saint John the Evangelist due to its human-like body with a beard, an eagle's head, and prominent wings extending from its back. This figure is clad in flowing robes and clasps an object, possibly a scroll or book, to its chest.

Both statues exhibit a reddish-brown hue with areas of darker discoloration and visible erosion, standing on an uneven stone floor against a light-beige, textured wall showing cracks. A dark, angular metal bracket is affixed to the wall behind the right statue.
