Colored resin statue of Our Lady of Oropa, 7 in.
Statuette of the Madonna of Oropa, created by experienced Italian craftsmen preserving the tradition of the Lucca figurine makers since 1900.
The figurine depicts the Black Madonna of Oropa, one of Italy's most beloved and revered Marian images, associated with the famous Sanctuary of Oropa; nestled amidst the Biellese Alps in Piedmont. Its devotion has ancient origins, dating back to the 4th century, and legend has it that the icon was brought to these lands by Saint Eusebius of Vercelli.
The original statue, housed in the Ancient Basilica of Oropa, is distinguished by its dark face and hands, a common trait among Black Madonnas symbolising protection and spirituality.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail to faithfully honour the iconography of the original statue, each aspect is carefully executed to offer a highly valuable devotional object.
Statue dimension: 7.1x2 in.
Made in Italy.
