St. Martin of Tours

One of the many striking churches in the neighbourhood, St. Martin of Tours bears this depiction of the soldier/ saint (feast day November 11, is this a coincindence?). I was absurdly pleased to learn that this is the same Martin after whom the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields takes its name and that I hear so often on CBC radio: 'The Academy was so named after the various concert-giving societies or 'Academies' that had flourished in 18th century London and the famous church in which it gave its first concert on 13 November 1959.'
