Moses with rays of Light coming from his head is copied from Michelangelo's famous statue.

It looks like he has two horns protruding from his head. In Exodus 34:29, it says, according to the Latin translation, that Moses “et ignorabat quod cornuta esset facies sua,” that is,“did not know his face had become horned," when he descended from Mt. Sinai.

This is probably a mistranslation. The Hebrew word for “horn,” “keren,” happens to be also the Hebrew word for a “ray of light.”
