Short description
Sycamore wood | Hand-cut | Hand-painted | Unique | Height 18 cm
The ‘Ulrich Nativity’ from Gherdëina (Dolomites) is considered to be one of the most beautiful nativity scenes at all. It owes its existence to the flowering period of woodcarving here in the 17th century which had developed from the peasant secondary occupation into an independent handicraft. The figurines impress by their very delicate working out the details up to expressive facial features. Carving of fine sycamore wood, painted to the finest detail by hand - each figurine is unique._x000D_
