Description from the seller
Height 46 cm, weight 3.2 kilos, beautiful antique circa 1880 hand-painted blue, pink, yellow, and gold porcelain from Viex Paris. Bisque figure of Saint Joseph with Sacred Heart and angel cherub. From a Belgian monastery that is closed.
According to Matthew and Luke, Joseph was engaged to Mary, who became pregnant without having had sexual relations with her fiancé. Joseph 'did not want to expose her to shame and thought about dismissing her secretly.' However, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream and told Joseph that Mary was pregnant by the Holy Spirit. Joseph could safely marry Mary, which he did (Matthew 1:18-25).
According to Luke, Joseph lived in Nazareth and traveled with Mary to Bethlehem for a census 'to register himself'. When they arrived in Bethlehem, the birth took place, and Jesus was born there (Luke 2:1-7).
