This extraordinary representation of the Holy Family captures the intimacy and sacredness of the Nativity in a compact and moving sculptural group. The scene depicts a protective Saint Joseph, the Virgin Mary in tender contemplation, and the Child Jesus wrapped in white swaddling clothes. The entire work is designed to convey warmth and domestic devotion.
Every detail is meticulously crafted by the master sculptors of Val Gardena. The figures are sculpted with delicate features and the drapery of the clothes falls in soft, realistic folds, giving depth and movement. In the colored finish, one can notice the skillful brushstrokes that give a handcrafted and lived-in appearance, enhanced by the refined golden borders on Saint Joseph's mantle, which recall the ancient art of sacred trimmings. The symbol of the glowing lantern held by Joseph adds an additional layer of warmth and guidance to the scene.
Made according to Dolfi's philosophy, this statue is entirely carved from maple wood for all available sizes, from the smallest at 5 cm up to 45 cm. Upon request, the prestigious variation in Italian olive wood is also available, prized for its unique and natural grain. A masterpiece that combines faith and tradition, ideal for enriching your nativity scene or as an object of profound devotion.
