What a marvel this sculpture of Our Lady of the βOβ is! A touching piece, inspired by the medieval style, carrying within it all the solemnity and tenderness of the divine expectancy. The Virgin, with serene features and a contemplative expression, raises one hand in a gesture of blessing, while the other gently rests on her rounded belly β a symbol of hope and promise.
The simplicity of the lines, the graceful flow of the robes masterfully carved, and the frontal gaze transport us directly to the spirit of the Romanesque β austere, symbolic, profoundly spiritual. Itβs a piece that speaks softlyβ¦ yet with immense presence. The wood, marked by time, has a warm, earthy tone that envelops us, as if the figure itself radiated protection and stillness.
This Our Lady is more than a devotional object β it is art with soul, a living presence of the sacred, heritage that touches the heart.
Now at Batalha Collection, waiting for a home where she can continue to be venerated, admired, and loved. Come see her with your own eyesβ¦ and feel her inner power. πΎπ«
