Description

This splendid sculpture of the Lying Sheep captures the serenity and gentleness inherent in the animal. Crafted with a mastery that honors the sculptural tradition of Val Gardena, every detail is designed to infuse warmth and realism. The lamb is depicted in a crouching pose, its head slightly raised with a calm and attentive expression.

The true masterpiece lies in the reproduction of the woolly fleece: the surface is richly sculpted with deep undulations and curls, a voluminous texture that, in the colored variant, is enhanced by a creamy white finish with shading that adds extraordinary depth and shadow. The hooves are painted in contrast, while the muzzle features subtle accents that define its sweetness.

In line with Dolfi craftsmanship, this statue is carefully carved from precious maple wood, selected for its fine grain and suitability for sculpting small details. Available in different finishes—from the purity of natural, to the warmth of colored wood or the depth of three shades of brown—this Lamb is a treasure of faith and tradition, entirely handcrafted and finished by our artists.

Detail & Meaning
1) Iconographic and symbolic elements: Sheep lying down, part of the Nativity scene.
2) Religious meaning: The sheep symbolizes humility, innocence, and meekness. In the Nativity scene, it represents the presence of animals at the Nativity and the faithful who follow the Divine Shepherd.
Story
The sheep, a symbol of purity and meekness, is deeply rooted in the Christian tradition. It represents the "flock" of faithful led by the "Good Shepherd," Jesus Christ. Its presence in the nativity scene evokes the humility of the Nativity and the biblical symbolism of the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. It is not associated with a single saint, but embodies universal values ​​of innocence, sacrifice and devotion, central to the faith.
