Saint Anthony of Padua is one of the most beloved saints in the Catholic Church, a 13th-century Franciscan friar born in Lisbon and later associated with Padua, Italy, where he spent the final years of his life and ministry. He is venerated as the patron saint of lost things, the poor, travelers, and those seeking miraculous intervention. His image holding the Christ Child is one of the most recognized in all of Catholic sacred art, rooted in a vision Anthony is said to have experienced in which the infant Jesus appeared to him in a radiant embrace. He was canonized less than a year after his death in 1231, one of the fastest canonizations in Church history, a reflection of the immediate devotion his life inspired.

This sculpture depicts Saint Anthony standing upright, his gaze directed downward toward the Christ Child cradled in his right arm. The infant Jesus reclines against Anthony's chest with his own face turned upward, the two figures connected in an expression of tender mutual attention. In his left hand, held at his side, Anthony holds a carved lily bouquet, the white lily being his most consistent iconographic attribute, representing his purity and his deep Marian devotion. A rosary with a clearly carved cross pendant hangs from his left hand alongside the lily stem, its individual beads defined along the full length of the strand. He wears the full habit of the Franciscan order: a long hooded robe with wide sleeves, a knotted cord cincture at the waist, and the robe falling in long straight folds to his feet, where his sandaled feet are just visible at the base. His face is young and composed, with downcast eyes and a gentle expression of devotion directed toward the child he holds.

The sculpture is carved from white marble with a matte, fine-grained finish that gives the stone a soft and clean quality in natural light. The carving is detailed throughout, with particular care given to the Christ Child's curled form, the individual lily petals, the rosary beads and cross, and the deep vertical folds of the Franciscan habit. He stands on a stepped octagonal base also carved in white marble. White marble has a centuries-long tradition in Catholic devotional sculpture and suits both indoor and sheltered outdoor placement.

This sculpture holds significant presence. It suits a garden grotto, church courtyard, memorial garden, or the entrance to a Catholic home or institution. Indoors it works in a church foyer, chapel, or large devotional room. Saint Anthony's combination of accessibility, intercessory power, and universal appeal across Catholic cultures makes this one of the most broadly meaningful Catholic garden sculptures available at this scale.

"The statue chooses you.

You know when you find the right piece to bring into your home and into your heart."

~ Kyle Tortora, Founder, Lotus Sculpture ~

Use a cotton cloth and gently buff the surface of the statue to bring out the natural polish of the stone.

White, red and black marble statues are easy to take care of as they just need some annual upkeep to keep them looking as they did when they were first carved. Here are some easy tips to keep your White, red and black marble statues from Lotus Sculpture looking like the gods they are:

Dust the statue as needed to prevent dirt build up
To make the statue shine use a cotton cloth to buff the sculpture
You can use a small amount of natural oil such as coconut oil or olive oil to further polish the sculpture
Use a tooth brush to get into the hard to reach spaces of the sculpture
DO NOT TOUCH the painted surfaces of any of the white marble statues. This will damage the painting if done often

White marble statues that are unpainted can be placed outdoors. We recommend keeping our smaller red and black marble statues as well as any painted marble statues in an indoor environment. The red and black marble statues have some delicate pieces that could chip if left outisde. The paint from the white marble statues will not last for more than 4 years if left outside so use discretion when placing your statues outdoors.
Please feel free to contact us directly if you have any questions regarding your marble statue from Lotus Sculpture, (760) 994-4455 or info@lotussculpture.com.

The delivery charges include insurance, a residential lift gate delivery to your home or business. The freight company will call you to schedule a delivery day and time frame to make the delivery. Someone must be present to receive the statue. Depending on where you are located we will use either R&L Carriers, UPS Freight, Estes, DHX or Roadrunner Transport.
The freight company will use a lift gate to bring the sculpture to the ground and then use a pallet jack to move it anywhere on the same level. They will move it anywhere in your driveway or in your garage. They will not take it to your backyard or in the elevator to your apartment or up or down any steps. They will not be unpacking the statue and taking the crate away. Think of them as you would UPS or Fedex. They only deliver the statue. If you require a little extra service, (within reason) a tip to a delivery man usually works wonders!
For placing the statue our customers have either placed the statue themselves with help of a friend and a tool like a hand truck or a dolly. Or by contacting their landscaper who is used to moving large and heavy objects like rocks and trees into place. For much larger and heavier sculptures sometimes the customer needs a piece of heavy equipment for placing the statue like a crane or forklift. If you have any questions contact me directly at kyle@lotussculpture.com or (760) 994-4455
