A beautiful and touching depiction of real life and tenderness of the Holy Family.
Cast in a resin and stone composition and hand-painted by the artists of Joseph Studios. This 6-1/2 inch high and 8-1/4 inch wide statue was inspired by the viral Nativity scene shared by Pope Francis in 2019.
Pope Francis shared the viral Nativity image called “Let Mum Rest”. Pope Francis said that for his birthday on December 17, he was shown a unique Nativity scene, dubbed “Let Mum Rest.” In the depiction, Mary is sleeping and Joseph is holding a tired Baby with his arms outstretched. The pope said the image shows “the tenderness of a family, of a marriage.” The manger is a domestic Gospel."
Pope Francis has been emphasizing the importance of holding on to the tradition of displaying Nativity scenes in your home.
