St. Andrew (1633) is a sculpture by François Duquesnoy.
Made between 1629 and 1633, the sculpture of St. Andrews by François Duquesnoy is one of the four larger-than-life statues at the corners of the crossing of St. Peter's Basilica. The other three statues are Bernini's Saint Longinus, Mochi's Santa Veronica, and Bolgi's St. Helena. Each statue depicts a venerated relic, which at the time, was the property of the Pope and St. Peters.
