A testament to faith and mastery: this sublime sculpture of the Pilgrim Our Lady of Fátima is a masterpiece of Val Gardena craftsmanship, made according to the centuries-old Dolfi tradition. The work captures the Virgin Mary in the iconic pose of the apparitions, with her hands joined in fervent prayer and her head bowed in humble benevolence.

The expression on her face is one of celestial and maternal serenity, with a downward gaze that invites inner contemplation. The dress and veil, in classic cream and blue tones, are embellished with embroideries and gold outlines, which enhance their sacredness. Details such as the rosary, the golden belt, and the stylized five-pointed star at her feet attest to the meticulous attention to detail.

This statue is offered in the 60 cm size, a dimension that requires the use of lime wood, chosen for its excellent stability and fine grain, ideal for carving large volumes. The finish is entirely hand-painted with opaque and semi-gloss pigments, giving the figure an ethereal and luminous appearance, worthy of a true work of sacred art, created to instill peace and devotion.

The Pilgrim Virgin of Fatima, finely carved in wood, is part of the collection of sculptures from Val Gardena - Dolfi sacred statues. Its history is linked to the Marian apparitions of 1917 in Fatima, Portugal, where three shepherd children, Lucia, Jacinta and Francesco, received messages from the Virgin Mary. These messages, known as the "three secrets of Fatima", were revealed gradually. The first two secrets were published in 1942, while the third remained hidden for a long time, fueling great interest and devotion. The Virgin of Fatima is venerated as a symbol of hope, peace and conversion, attracting millions of faithful throughout the world.
