When the two parts are linked, there is the finishing of the statue and it is perfectly smoothed, then the statue goes through the coloring section. The skilled decorators hand paint using particolar varnishes, conforming to the traditional iconography. The fiberglass is a plastic material, very resistant and humidity absorber which is used in many sectors: industry, furnitures, building of boats, airplanes, vehicles, garden swimmingpool etc.

Storia

The religious cult of the Sacred Heart of Jesus hails from the late Middle Age, between 1200 and 1300, in Germany. Only around the XVII century it spread over, thanks to the private revelations of Margherita Maria Alacoque, Claude La Colombière and all the brothers of the Jesus Company.

Years to come they were founded many Religious Congregations both male and female.

The Christ is illustrated with a white clothing and a red tunic. He points out with his left hand a Heart on his chest while the right hand can be pointed towards people.

The Heart is represented wrapped in a crowd of thorns which symbolize the sins of mankind and a flame on its top, a symbol of ardent love and charity.
