Description from the seller

Holy Family – wood carving – Bernardi, Val Gardena, South Tyrol, Italy – 20th century.

Professionally shipped – more than 850 five-star reviews worldwide.

Monumental Christmas figure of the Holy Family, crafted by the Bernardi workshop in Val Gardena, South Tyrol. The Christmas group depicts Joseph and Mary protectively gathered around the Baby Jesus, who is lying on straw at their feet. The composition is entirely carved from a single piece and rests on an accompanying pedestal. The sculpture is hand-carved from linden wood and richly gilded, giving the whole a warm and solemn appearance. The facial expressions are gentle and subdued, with great attention to posture and the mutual relationship between the figures.

Height 44 cm, total height with base 51 cm, in good condition with light signs of use consistent with age and material. Equipped with the original label and certificate.

Please look at the photos carefully, they are part of the description.

Shipped with track & trace.
