This wooden sculpture captures the essence of family love and divine protection through a stylized and monolithic form. The figures of the Holy Family – Joseph, Mary, and the Child – merge in an enveloping embrace, creating a "nest-like" composition that expresses serenity and tenderness. The faces, reclined and peaceful, convey a profound sense of contemplation.
The finish uses warm and subdued tones: light, warm beige for the bodies, opaque gray-blue for the cloak, and cream white for the Child. Every main contour, as well as the subtle halos crowning their heads, is defined by a delicate metallic golden line, which adds a touch of satin light to the entire artwork.
Made entirely according to the artistic tradition of Val Gardena, this sculpture is masterfully carved. For the available sizes (10, 14, and 20 cm), we use precious maple wood, known for its fine grain that allows our artisans to achieve exceptional detail precision, before being finished with oil colors that enhance its minimalist elegance.
