I believe that the statue symbolises his life transition from the childhood Bartholomew who received his vision through to his monastic life as Sergey Radoneshky the spiritual leader. There is a holy spring at the river nearby where followers of the orthodox faith bless. I am glad you liked the picture. All the best Steve.
