Mind you, there is no information on who this Saint is supposed to be, but as the statue comes with two child statues, it ist most likely depicting St. Nicolas of Myra (270 - 343AC), name giver of Santa Claus.
St. Nicolas was born in Patara, Turkey and became bishop of nearby Myra. An early list makes him an attendee at the First Council of Nicaea in 325, but he is never mentioned in any writings by people who were at the council.
