Large Infant Jesus figures in Catholic art
Infant Jesus figures are among the most popular Catholic images handcrafted in the artisan workshops of Olot. Their sweet expressions, realistic glass eyes, and finely detailed features have earned these figures international recognition.
The Infant Jesus images from Olot are available in a wide variety of sizes. The most requested sizes are the largest ones, starting at 25–30.0 cm (11.81 in).
Figures measuring 25, 30, 35, 40, and 50.0 cm (19.68 in) are available in the catalog of the Olot workshops.
These handcrafted Catholic figures are ideal for altars, monumental nativity scenes, and homes with ample space.
The Catholic images from Olot are made following the artisan process established in 1880. The figures are crafted in wood paste, a material that allows for exceptional detail and is very lightweight, finished with glass eyes and completely hand-painted, including both the faces and the garments.
Buying a large Infant Jesus figure
Infant Jesus figures play a significant role in the religious symbolism of Christmas. That is why it is important to select a figure that suits your specific needs.
When choosing an Infant Jesus figure for the nativity, it is essential to consider the available space, the size, and the overall style of the nativity scene.
Considering the available space is key when determining the appropriate size of the figure. Placing the image on a church altar, where it is viewed from a distance, is very different from setting it on a table or next to the Christmas tree in a living room. The greater the viewing distance, the larger the figure should be.
It’s also important to consider the style of the other figures in the nativity. The Catholic art figures from Olot feature a traditional style.
Infant Jesus figures at Christmas
Infant Jesus figures play a vital role in the Christmas liturgy, both in parish churches and in the homes of Catholic families.
These statues support visual catechesis and encourage prayer, especially among the youngest members of the family. Displaying an Infant Jesus figure in the church or at home during Christmas is a beautiful way to introduce children to the mysteries of the Holy Catholic Church.
These images become a living symbol of faith that inspires and supports the spiritual journey throughout Advent and Christmas.
