The sculpture of Saint Cunigunde captures a moment of noble contemplation and spiritual royalty. Clad in a flowing dark grey-green cloak, trimmed with lavish golden borders, the figure stands with a regal bearing, adorned with an intricately crafted crown that attests to her imperial lineage.
The serenity of her face is accentuated by her meditative pose: in her left hand she holds a closed book, while her right hand delicately clasps a golden stylus, a symbol of wisdom and moral authority. Every drapery, every detail of her cream-colored garments and gold finishes, is the result of the mastery of the sculptors of Val Gardena, who imbue the work with vibrant realism.
Quality and materials: This precious work of sacred art is available in a wide range of sizes, which determine its material. The statue is made of maple wood for sizes up to 56 cm, an ideal material for its finesse and ability to accommodate minute details. For sizes from 60 cm upwards, the carving is done on robust linden wood, perfect for monumental works. All versions are hand-painted with oil colors and enriched with precious shiny gilding.
