Admire the majesty of the sculpture of Saint Eligius Bishop, a masterpiece of faith and craftsmanship born in the heart of Val Gardena. This representation captures the dignity of the Saint in a moment of serene contemplation.
His vestments are a triumph of color and light: the burgundy cope is enriched with rich golden finishes that stand out against the cream white of the miter and the deep blue of the tunic underneath. The pose is authoritative, with the long golden crozier elevated and an open book held in his right hand, symbols of his mission. His bearded face, with half-closed eyes, expresses a profound spirituality, masterfully rendered by the sculptors' wisdom.
Every detail, from the hanging cross to the rigor of the base, testifies to the meticulous care of this work. This sculpture is available in the "Colored" (C) finish which enhances its vibrancy and "Three shades of brown" (3G) for a more classic effect.
According to Dolfi's artisanal tradition, the work is made of maple wood for all sizes up to 56 cm, ensuring fine details and precision. For monumental statues, starting from 60 cm, linden wood is used, ideal for giving stability and grandeur to large sculptures.
