This depiction of Joseph holding baby Jesus brings to life his gentle and nurturing nature.

Standing erect with a slightly inclined head and with baby Jesus in his left hand, this carving brings forth the stoic nature of Joseph. The lily in this right hand, held delicately with an upturned palm, symbolizes Joseph’s integrity, purity and honor.

The face of this figure is crafted with such excellence, that Joseph’s expression is vivid in its communication of his stoic endurance of suffering. Baby Jesus, depicted holding the European Goldfinch, represents sacrifice, the precious human soul, and resurrection.

This hand carved olive wood sculpture is a palpable reminder of the powerful figures in the story of our Lord and Savior. It makes a precious religious gift and decor.
