  •  Comment - I tried t find out about the man behind the statue, but could not find anything in Wikipedia, which means that this might well fail the notability test and therefore would not justify an entry in its own right. I did a little research (including translating "San Giacomo Confessore" to "St James the Confessor") and have found out a little about him which, in the absence of a Wikipedia article (in any language), I added to the description. If anybody can argue for his notability, I would be happy to support this nomination, but I woudl like a second opinion on my extensions to the description.

  •  Info - The mention of the bishop in the Orthodox Church list of Saints is explained by the fact that he was canonized before the separation of the churches into the Orthodox and the Catholic in 1054. The statue, from my point of view, is more interesting as a local work of art 19 century (on the base of the statue is the inscription "L-zo GRASSO scolpiva CAT. 1896.")-- Ввласенко (talk) 14:59, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
