Our Lady of Oropa Statue 20 cm colored resin. A small statue of Our Lady of Oropa, crafted by skilled Italian artisans who have carried on the tradition of Lucca figurine makers since 1900.
This representation depicts the Black Madonna of Oropa, one of Italy's most beloved and venerated Marian images, associated with the famous Sanctuary of Oropa nestled in the Biellese Alps in Piedmont. Its devotion traces back to ancient times, dating back to the 4th century, with tradition holding 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 of Black Madonnas symbolizing protection and spirituality. Crafted with attention to detail to faithfully honor the iconography of the original statue, each element is meticulously crafted to provide an object of high devotional value. Statue dimensions: 18x5 cm. Made in Italy.
