Description

Immerse yourself in spirituality and artisanal mastery with the statue of Saint Bernard of Tiron. This sculpture captures the figure of the Saint in a moment of deep contemplation, with his head slightly bowed and his gaze contemplative. The upright yet serene pose is enhanced by the impeccable rendering of the monastic habit, draped in warm brown tones that suggest the texture of the fabric.

Every detail is meticulously crafted: from the four-pointed black beret to the open sandals revealing his feet, up to the cincture at his waist with the Tau cross. The chromatic balance is completed by the vibrant red-orange book held in his left hand and the pastoral staff, whose light wooden shaft is topped with a precious volute finished in gold leaf.

This sacred work of art is a testament to the ancient tradition of Val Gardena. Crafted with care and dedication, the statue is carved from maple wood for sizes up to 56cm and from linden wood for larger sizes, ensuring quality and detail in every available variant.

Detail & Meaning
San Bernardo di Tiron è raffigurato con gli attributi tipici della sua vita monastica e pastorale. Il saio marrone simboleggia l'umiltà e la povertà, mentre la croce Tau (croce di Sant'Antonio Abate o di San Francesco) ne sottolinea la profonda spiritualità e l'adesione a una vita di rigore. Il libro, spesso associato alle Sacre Scritture o alla Regola monastica, e il bastone pastorale dorato, indicano il suo ruolo di fondatore e guida di comunità religiose e il suo impegno nell'evangelizzazione e nella cura delle anime. L'espressione serena e lo sguardo abbassato riflettono la sua dedizione alla preghiera e alla meditazione.
Story
San Bernardo di Tiron, noto anche come Bernardo di Abbeville, fu un eremita francese e fondatore dell'Ordine Tironense (o Congregazione di Tiron), un ramo dei Benedettini. Nato intorno al 1046, dedicò gran parte della sua vita alla riforma monastica, insistendo sul lavoro manuale e sull'artigianato come parte integrante della vita religiosa, specialmente l'intaglio e la lavorazione del legno. Dopo aver vissuto come eremita, fondò l'Abbazia di Tiron nel 1109, che divenne un centro spirituale e lavorativo di grande importanza. La sua figura è quindi strettamente legata alla dignità del lavoro manuale, un valore che risuona profondamente con la tradizione artigiana della Val Gardena.
