This extraordinary Angel sculpture is a hymn to organic beauty and the craftsmanship of Val Gardena. The work stands out for its bold material contrast: the central body is made using a piece of raw tree bark, maintaining its rough, irregular texture and natural shades, from dark brown to reddish. This choice gives the angel a primordial appearance deeply rooted in alpine nature.
The wings, head, and edges of the robe, smooth and clean, are instead skillfully carved from precious maple wood, in line with the Dolfi tradition for sculptures of this size (24 cm). The finish is completely natural and opaque, free of paint or burnishing, enhancing the clear grain of the wood. This fusion between the raw element of the bark and the carved form of the angel creates a stylized, harmonious, and monolithic silhouette, perfect for those seeking a modern sacred art piece with significant visual impact.
