Bronze figure - Mary / Mother of Jesus - sign. A. A. Weinman

According to the Bible, Mary, also known as Saint Mary or Virgin Mary, was a Jewish woman of Nazareth in Galilee and the mother of Jesus. She is identified in the New Testament as the mother of Jesus through divine intervention. Mary also has a revered position in Islam, where a whole chapter of the Quran is devoted to her. Christians hold her son Jesus to be Christ and God the Son Incarnate.

The original of the adjoining depiction was created by the German-American sculptor Adolph Alexander Weinman. As a counterpart to Mary, he has created a Josef representation that can also be found in our shop. We carry a wide range of Christian sculptures, such as the famous Pièta by the Italian sculptor Michelangelo.

The bronze figure on the left was made in the lost wax method practiced for thousands of years and meets strict quality guidelines. The process is subject to a complex, multi-day process of more than 30 steps.
