Funerary Pieta Statue in Bronze 55 cm for OUTDOORS.
Bronze statue made by an Italian foundry specialized in the casting of bronze and in the creation of funerary articles.Funeral statue of the Pietà realized with the technique of lost wax casting that consists in shaping a wax model, with a clay core, and covering it with clay, creating a mold. Once placed in the baking oven, the wax melts and comes out from the appropriate holes. In the empty space left by the wax, the molten bronze is poured, which fills it completely, taking its shape. After the bronze is cooled the outer layer of clay is broken and the sculpture is obtained which now needs only to be finished and polished.With this procedure, only unique bronze works are produced, since the loss of the wax model and the clay coating is inevitable.The statue can be exhibited both indoors and outdoors. The statue is colored with paints that allow it to resist even outside. Bronze, being a living material, over the years (if exposed to the outside) tends to become dark: this characteristic represents the beauty of bronze which with time gives it a different beautiful aspect.
