Blessed Claudio Granzotto statue in painted resin, 20 cm

Blessed Claudio Granzotto painted resin statue, 20 cm. This statue depicts Blessed Brother Claudio Granzotto, made of resin and marble powder, meticulously finished with attention to detail. The friar is depicted in the traditional Franciscan habit, holding a cross to his chest and a hammer in the other hand, symbolizing both his artistic and spiritual calling. Brother Claudio was a talented sculptor who, after embracing the Franciscan life, dedicated his art to faith and serving the needy. Embracing suffering as an offering to God, he lived with humility and prayer. Beatified in 1994 by Pope John Paul II, he is remembered for his charity and a recognized miracle attributed to his intercession. This statue originates from a Tuscan company with a long tradition in producing sacred statues, active since 1900. Each piece is hand-painted with great care by artists, making each one unique, keeping the artisanal tradition alive. Statue measurements: 20.5x6.5x6.3 cm. Made in Italy.
