Description

Let yourselves be touched by the serenity of Saint Francis of Assisi, a sculptural masterpiece that captures the essence of his spirituality. The figure is depicted in a moment of gentle contemplation, his gaze turned towards the small white bird, a symbol of his deep connection with creation and his mission of peace. Meticulous attention to detail is evident: from the soft flow of the habit, girded by the cincture with its three knots, to the chromatic contrast of the red book he holds at his side.

This sculpture is the result of ancient artisan wisdom handed down in Val Gardena. Each piece is skillfully carved, ensuring a sweet and realistic facial expression and a finish that enhances the polychrome and opaque painting (in the colored version), or the natural beauty of the wood grain (in the natural or olive versions).

Depending on the chosen size, the material used varies to ensure maximum quality and stability. The statue is made of maple wood for sizes up to 56 cm and of linden wood for other larger sizes. Also available in the prestigious Italian olive wood version, this representation of Saint Francis is a hymn to faith and Franciscan simplicity, perfect for enriching your home or a place of worship.

Story
San Francesco d'Assisi, born Giovanni Francesco Bernardone, was the son of a rich merchant. After an experience of imprisonment and illness, he converted, abandoning worldly life and dedicating himself to the restoration of the Church. His radical poverty and his preaching led to the foundation of the Franciscan orders (Friars Minor, Poor Clares and Third Order). Francesco preached in Italy and beyond, seeking to convert even the Sultan. His life was an example of humility, joy and love for creation, culminating in the stigmata. He died at 45, leaving a spiritual legacy that spread a rebirth throughout Europe. He was canonized quickly and his tomb is located in Assisi. His figure is venerated for his dedication to God and his influence on the Church.
