Reliefs, Saint Statues, and Stations of the Cross – Timeless Expressions of Christian Faith
The depiction of saints and biblical scenes has been an essential part of Christian art since early Christianity. Initially found on the walls of catacombs and basilicas, religious images and sculptures gradually made their way into private homes. To this day, many believers place their trust in the intercession of their patron saint or other holy figures, especially within the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox traditions.
In the Alpine region of Val Gardena, the tradition of wood carving has been deeply influenced by Catholic faith – making saint statues a central element of this sacred craft.
Franco offers a wide range of woodcarved saint figures, including popular patrons like St. Anthony and St. Joseph, as well as lesser-known saints such as St. Cosimo and St. Damian. Each piece is carefully carved with attention to detail and deep spiritual meaning.
Our collection also features selected religious reliefs, including Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper and Albrecht Dürer’s Praying Hands – both available as high-quality wall pieces. A highlight is the modern Stations of the Cross, a 14-part series portraying the Passion of Christ – from the condemnation by Pontius Pilate to the burial.
