Description

Add a touch of pastoral serenity to your Nativity scene or collection with this extraordinary Standing Sheep Sculpture. Captured in a placid pose, with its head slightly raised, the animal embodies the essential meekness and sweetness of the Nativity.

The artisanal masterpiece from Val Gardena lies in the meticulous crafting of the fleece. The opaque surface of the body, finished in ivory cream tones, is sculpted with a deep and irregular texture that perfectly simulates the density of the curly coat. Each individual strand is carefully defined, creating an effect of depth accentuated by dark shades in the indentations. The details are finished with visual contrasts: the snout features light pink hues, the black dot eyes, and the hooves in dark mahogany tones, slightly polished.

Crafted according to the South Tyrolean sculptural tradition, this figure is carved from precious maple wood, the material of choice for smaller sizes (available from 6 cm to 15 cm). Choose between the colored (C), natural (N) finish or the three shades of brown (3G) to integrate it perfectly into your sacred environment or Nativity scene.

Story
The sheep, a symbol of purity and obedience, is deeply rooted in the Christian tradition. It represents the people of God, guided and protected by the "Good Shepherd," Jesus Christ. Its image evokes humility, innocence, and trust in divine guidance. Often associated with the paschal sacrifice, it symbolizes redemption and unconditional love. Its presence in nativity scenes and sacred works underscores the centrality of faith and devotion.
