Description
This wonderful maple wood figurine is a work of art made entirely by hand by the skilled craftsmen of Val Gardena in the Italian Alps. The figurine depicts a shepherd with a beard, a staff, a water spout on his shoulder and a sheep perched on his shoulder. Every detail has been carved with great precision and care, creating a realistic and detailed figure that captures the eye. The figurine is then hand-painted in soft, muted yet luminous colours, creating an even greater effect of depth and realism.
Thanks to its handcrafted finish and intrinsic beauty, this figurine will be a perfect addition to your Christmas crib, creating an atmosphere of authenticity and devotion during the festive season. This figurine is one of a kind and expresses the dedication and enthusiasm of the creator.
Detail & Meaning
1) Iconographic and symbolic elements: Shepherd with beard, stick, water fountain, sheep on his shoulder.
2) Religious meaning: The shepherd symbolizes spiritual guidance and care for the flock (the faithful). The sheep on its shoulder represents the lost sheep found, a symbol of divine mercy and salvation. The water fountain may recall spiritual thirst and the living water of faith.
Story
The shepherd figurine, while not depicting a specific saint, evokes fundamental biblical figures linked to the Nativity and the life of Jesus. The shepherd is a symbol of humility, guidance, and care for the flock, recalling the image of Jesus himself as the "Good Shepherd" who watches over his faithful. His presence in the nativity scene celebrates the announcement of Christ's birth to the simplest and their immediate response of faith, emphasizing the message of universal hope and salvation. The veneration of this figure is linked to the Christian tradition of celebrating the divine incarnation through scenes that evoke the simplicity and sacredness of the first Christmas.
