A masterful interpretation of St. Francis that combines eternal spirituality with contemporary and minimalist design. This wooden sculpture captures the essence of the Saint's meekness, depicted in a flowing ochre and honey-colored tunic, as he offers a gesture of protection to the wolf seated beside him.
The style is characterized by smooth and rounded forms; the absence of detailed facial features focuses attention on the contemplative pose and profound serenity, inviting introspection. The finish is expertly satin or matte: warm, earthy pigments are applied with such transparency that the precious wood grain remains visible, lending an authentic and natural appearance, typical of South Tyrolean craftsmanship.
Val Gardena's Precious Materials: The wide range of available sizes requires the use of different wood species to ensure maximum stability and detail. Sculptures up to 56 cm are carved from exquisite maple wood, known for its fine and even grain. For larger sizes (56 cm and above), we use sturdy linden wood. Special variants in colored ash wood or exclusive Italian olive wood are also available, bringing a piece of artisanal excellence directly to your home.
