Description

Be enchanted by the country serenity of this sculpture, a carving masterpiece that captures the sweetness of a young maiden immersed in nature. The figure is presented in a traditional dress with warm, earthy tones: the wide orange-red apron contrasts with the dark green underskirt, recalling the colors of the alpine landscape at sunset.

The plain and slightly pensive expression of the girl conveys a deep quiet, as she carefully clasps a goose under her arm and raises the delicate pan flute to her chest. Every detail, from the texture of the dress folds to the small bird with the scarlet breast perched on the base, is finished with artisanal mastery, a tribute to the sculptural tradition of Val Gardena.

This miniature sculpture is made of precious maple wood, the material of choice for sizes up to 56 cm, chosen for its fine grain and its ability to best render the most minute details. The matte, traditional finish enhances the carving and the vibrancy of the colors, ensuring a unique piece that brings the authenticity of alpine craftsmanship directly into your home.

Detail & Meaning
Questa figura incarna l'archetipo dell'innocenza bucolica e della vita pastorale, un tema ricorrente nell'arte alpina sia sacra che secolare. Il <strong>Flauto di Pan</strong> (o siringa) è un simbolo potente, storicamente legato alla musica rustica, all'armonia con la natura e alle gioie semplici, riecheggiando la figura mitologica del dio Pan. L'<strong>oca</strong>, spesso associata alla vita domestica e alla cura, contribuisce a creare un'immagine di un mondo idilliaco e ben ordinato. Insieme, questi elementi compongono una scena di perfetta sincronia tra l'uomo e il regno animale, celebrando la bellezza del creato e la contemplazione serena del mondo naturale.
Story
La tradizione dell'intaglio del legno in Val Gardena risale a molti secoli fa. Sebbene inizialmente focalizzata su soggetti strettamente religiosi, l'arte si è evoluta per includere figure secolari e scene di genere che ritraggono la vita quotidiana, la natura e i temi pastorali. Figure come questa giovane fanciulla con animali e strumenti musicali riflettono una tendenza popolare sviluppatasi nel XIX secolo, quando gli artigiani iniziarono a creare soggetti apprezzati dai viaggiatori e dai collezionisti. Queste scene di genere sono una testimonianza della maestria e dell'identità culturale tramandata di generazione in generazione, mantenendo viva l'antica arte dell'intaglio manuale.
