I think that's just a statue representing the Grimm War. I think that the Huntersman might be related to Jaune based on the way he is looking at it in the first season opening and someone once said that they have the same sword (I can't confirm that part).

Cinder would have been around a teenage when Ruby was born, so I want to assume that Summer was a teacher (Signal or Beacon) and that Cinder was one of her best students. And Cinder in turn deeply admired Summer.
