Immerse yourself in the sculptural mastery of Val Gardena with this impressive depiction of Saint Kilian the Bishop. The figure is presented in a dynamic and authoritative pose, dressed in ecclesiastical garments in warm, earthy tones – a rich reddish-brown and a creamy beige – enhanced by a profusion of bright metallic gold accents that highlight his episcopal dignity.
Every detail is the result of skilled handcrafting: from the decorated miter to the solemn golden crozier, to the sacred book that the Bishop holds to his chest. The bearded and contemplative facial expression suggests a deep inner serenity, while the downcast eyes invite contemplation. The robes fall naturally, enriched with golden borders and clasps that catch the light, resting on a solid octagonal base.
This statue is an excellent example of Dolfi craftsmanship and is offered in two finish variations: colored (C), as illustrated, or natural (N). The wood selection respects the most authentic tradition: for sizes up to 56 cm, the sculpture is carved from precious maple wood; for sizes from 60 cm upwards, linden wood is used, ideal for larger, more imposing works. A devotional masterpiece that combines the quality of raw materials with the highest spirituality.
