POPE JOHN PAUL II - STATUE - WOOD

Finely carved wooden statue painted by hand, depicting Pope John Paul II, a symbol of love and faith, peace and mercy. The number of foreign trips he made on five continents point out his passion for freedom of nations, for the defense of peace and of human dignity. He spread everywhere impressive messages and unforgettable gestures: the encounter of Assisi with religious leaders from all around the world to the prayer at the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem. That's how Karol Wojtyła has ferried humanity into the third millennium.
