PIETA

The Pietà meaning “compassion” is a subject in Christian art depicting the Blessed Virgin Mary cradling the mortal body of Jesus Christ after his Descent from the Cross. It is most often found in sculpture.

The Pietà is a specific form of the Lamentation of Christ in which Jesus is mourned by sole privilege of the Virgin Mary alone, whilst representing her “sixth sorrow” and sometimes accompanied by a specific Marian title.

This Stunning Passion of Christ Head is hand carved inside of one branch of genuine olive wood in the Holy Land.

The wood of the Holiest Tree in the Holy Land, made by some Christian families in Bethlehem, using the prunes of young olive trees, and the sprouts from the trunks of the old tree. Each item is unique because of olive wood’s various colors and the possession of small cracks in the wood.

No Tree was damaged or destroyed in the process of harvesting the wood. Olive Wood does not require much care. Olive oil is naturally protecting it from corrosion and changes of color.

You will receive this item according to the picture except for its color and small wood cracks.
