Jesus tenderly carries a tiny lamb on his shoulder; the animal nestles close against his body. Alejandro Ramírez depicts Christ as the Good Shepherd, a metaphor taken from the gospel and prefigured in the Psalms. The image is reverently sculpted in exquisite detail, for Ramírez's art is an expression of his own faith. Carved of fragrant cedar wood, the figures are adorned with bronze leaf.
A metal hook at the back facilitates hanging.

I have several pieces by the Montalvo Family. Each was made with great skill and spirituality. The carvers have been blest with much talent. I am so honored to have their work in my home. May God continue to bless this family for sharing their gifts. Please support these artists.
