I believe that this is a statue of St. Denis who was a martyr that was among those persecuted by the Romans. The Romans chopped the heads off of people accused of being Christian, and supposedly around 250 AD, St Denis was decapitated near modern day Montmarte, but picked his head up and walked outside Paris to St Denis where there is now a temple dedicated to him. I found the statues interesting because the woman next to St Denis seems to be trying to get his attention to let him know that something is wrong.
