Description

Let yourselves be touched by the profound intimacy of this extraordinary wooden sculpture, which captures the sacred moment of the embrace between the Madonna and the Infant Jesus. The work is a hymn to maternal tenderness, skillfully carved by the artisans of Val Gardena, heirs to a centuries-old tradition.

The expression of the Virgin, with her eyes gently lowered and her lips slightly parted, conveys a contemplative serenity, while the Child, nestled against her cheek, casts a gentle gaze upwards. The volumes are enhanced by the rich chromatic palette: the dark blue-grey mantle envelops the figures with a realistic and deep drapery, contrasting with the warm tone of the dress and the delicate flesh tones. Every detail, from the Child's clasped hands to the finely sculpted locks of hair, testifies to the artist's absolute care.

This statue is available in various finishes. The polychrome (C) version is entirely hand-painted, with brushstrokes that enhance the wooden surface. For those who prefer the pure essence of the material, we also offer natural wood (N) and three shades of brown (3G) finishes.

All sizes, from 12 cm to 36 cm, are made from precious maple wood, carved and finished according to the standards of South Tyrolean artistic craftsmanship.

Detail & Meaning
1) Iconographic and symbolic elements: Madonnina (female figure, veil, joined or open hands, implicit halo), oval (shape).
2) Religious meaning: The Madonnina symbolizes the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus, a central figure of the Christian faith, an example of purity and devotion. The oval evokes perfection and divine continuity.
Story
The wooden oval depicting the Madonnina evokes the figure of Mary, mother of Jesus, venerated as the most important female figure in Christianity. Her story is narrated in the Gospels, from her Immaculate Conception, to the Annunciation, to the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem, to her presence at the foot of the cross. Veneration for Mary is profound and widespread, manifesting itself in countless titles (Madonna of Lourdes, of Fatima, of the Rosary, etc.), Marian apparitions recognized by the Church, pilgrimages and prayers such as the Rosary. She is considered an intercessor, protector and model of faith and humility for believers. Her figure inspires devotion and hope, representing divine motherhood and unconditional love.
