I was shocked that someone tossed this cause its so cool. Made in Italy a crushed marble statue by A. Santini. Thought it was cool because i found it in a pile of junk. What do you think? 15826215_1346085912103250_5955859513932056574_n.jpg

Cool find! It is a mini of The Pietร , which is a work of Renaissance sculpture by Michelangelo Buonarroti, housed in St. Peter's Basilica, Vatican City.

I remember seeing the Pieta at the 1964 World's Fair in NYC........the way you have the statue situated makes it look life-sized and just as beautiful as the real one.

First you end up volunteering at the church, then you find a Jesus sculpture. Someone is trying to tell you something. :happysmiley:
