Description

Immerse yourself in the serenity of this sculpture, a carving masterpiece that captures the tender relationship between Saint Joseph and the Infant Jesus. The man, strong and protective, holds his son with a gesture of profound benevolence, while his downcast eyes reflect sweet contemplation. The mastery of the Val Gardena artisans is evident in Joseph's sumptuous robes, characterized by voluminous and fluid draperies and finished with an elaborate gold leaf hem or gold paint, which gives the figure a regal and metallic sheen.

The precise shading and artisanal finishes give depth and realism to the facial features and the wide folds of the tunic. The Child, with his tranquil expression and soft curls, is a symbol of pure innocence resting safely in his father's arms. This statue is available in multiple finish variations: from the warm tones of colored to natural essences (natural wood, three shades of brown, and precious Italian olive wood).

Made of maple wood for sizes up to 56 cm and linden wood for larger sizes, each sculpture is a testament to the artistic tradition handed down from generation to generation in the heart of the Dolomites.
