Description

Let yourselves be embraced by the sweetness of the Shepherd with Lamb Sculpture, a masterpiece of carving that captures a moment of tender care and compassion. This figure, crafted with the artisan mastery typical of Val Gardena, depicts a young shepherd with a serene expression, his head bowed lovingly towards the lamb he gently holds in his arms.

The visual details are of extraordinary finesse: from the sculpted folds of the grey-beige tunic and earth-toned trousers, to the realistic and soft rendering of the lamb's creamy-white fleece. The finish, applied by hand with veiled and semi-transparent colors, gives the sculpture a patinated and aged look, partly revealing the natural grain of the wood, a distinctive sign of Dolfi authenticity.

According to our sculptural tradition, this statue is entirely made of precious maple wood, the ideal material for the 11 cm and 15 cm sizes that guarantee lightness and meticulous details. You can choose the colored finish (C) to enhance the natural and earthy tones, or the natural version (N) that celebrates the purity of the wood.

Detail & Meaning
Iconographic and symbolic elements: Shepherd, sheep.
Religious meaning: The shepherd symbolizes Christ's guidance and care for his flock (the faithful). The sheep represents the faithful themselves, purity, and innocence.
Story
The shepherd in the nativity scene symbolizes the humility and simplicity of the first witnesses of the Nativity. He is not associated with a specific saint, but represents the common people who welcomed the birth of Jesus with faith, embodying popular devotion and the essence of the evangelical message of peace and hope. His presence evokes the biblical pastoral tradition and the role of shepherds as guardians and announcers of the good news.
