Our Lady of Lourdes and Saint Bernadette Carved Wood Statue

This sublime Sculpture of Our Lady of Lourdes with Saint Bernadette captures the spirituality of the Marian apparition in a single, touching embrace. The figure of the Virgin stands with regal grace, her mantle adorned with luminous gold leaf details, while young Bernadette kneels in humble prayer, a silent bridge between the divine and the human.

The forms, although stylized and smoothed by the absence of defined facial features, convey a profound serenity and devotion. The hands of both figures are joined in prayer, and the drapery of the cream and ivory garments flows softly, emphasizing the elegance of the pose. The golden inscription "Lourdes" on the base and the embossed rose are a seal of authenticity that celebrates the sacred place.

Executed with the mastery that distinguishes the sculptors of Val Gardena, this statue is a masterpiece of pictorial finesse. The wood, selected with the utmost care, varies depending on the size: it is made of maple wood for sizes up to 56cm, ideal for the carving of minute details, and in the imposing lime wood for larger sizes. For those who desire a touch of uniqueness, the sculpture is also available in colored ash wood and in the exclusive Italian olive wood.
