Bronze Statue of Mary with Dead Jesus 60 cm for OUTDOORS.
Work of fine workmanship carried out by an Italian foundry specialized in the casting of bronze and in the creation of funerary articles.Statue of the Pietà created with the technique of lost wax casting, a technique in which the sculpture is modeled in wax and covered with a thin layer of foundry sand. Once the form is cooked, the wax melts and comes out of openings designed for this purpose. In the empty space left by the wax, molten bronze is poured, which fills it completely, taking its shape. After the bronze has cooled and solidified, the outer layer of clay is broken and the sculpture appears, which is subjected to finishing, smoothing and polishing processes.With this procedure, only unique pieces of work are obtained, given the loss of the wax model and the clay coating.The Pieta 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 the advancement of time gives this article a special look.
