The gaze is directed downward, composed and contemplative, conveying stillness without sentimentality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCast Bronze, Hand-Finished to a Warm Golden Patina\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis sculpture is produced using the traditional lost-wax casting process, in which every fold of the habit, every texture of the rope belt and hanging cord, and every contour of the naturalistic rocky base is captured from an original hand-modelled form. The result is a \u003cspan class=\"highlight\"\u003elarge bronze figure sculpture\u003c\/span\u003e of genuine craft integrity. The surface carries a smooth, warm golden-brown patina with minimal oxidation, lending the piece the quiet authority of a gallery or estate commission. The multi-tiered rocky base is integral to the composition, grounding the figure with a naturalistic weight that reads well at monumental scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 210cm and 330kg, this is a piece suited to grand interiors and formal outdoor settings alike: entrance halls, cathedral gardens, private chapel grounds, walled courtyards, or the centrepiece of a significant landscaped space. The warm bronze tones sit comfortably against aged stone, pale render, dark timber, or lush green planting. Its scale and finish make it equally at home indoors under high ceilings as it is positioned outdoors against an architectural backdrop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHandmade to Order, Fully Customisable\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe offer a range of patina options beyond the standard warm golden-brown, including mid-tone antique brown, dark verde, and near-black finishes. The composition can also be scaled to a different height, or adapted as a bespoke commission inspired by the work of traditional devotional sculptors in the figurative European canon. If you have specific requirements regarding finish, scale, or base treatment, please contact us before ordering so we can confirm the exact scope and timeline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExplore our full range of \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bronze-sculptures\"\u003eBronze Sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, browse the wider \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bronze-figures-statues\"\u003eBronze Figures and Statues\u003c\/a\u003e collection, or view monumental works in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/life-size-bronze-statues\"\u003eLife-Size Bronze Statues\u003c\/a\u003e gallery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e210cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e330kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53093464473947,"sku":"BRONZE-SAINT-9","price":36652.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/monumental-traditional-robed-friar-with-dove-and-wolf-bronze-sculpture-210cm_primary.jpg?v=1780199251","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/monumental-traditional-robed-friar-with-dove-and-wolf-bronze-sculpture-210cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
