EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning wood sculpture by Heinrich Douvermann depicts the iconic image of St. Christopher carrying the Child Jesus on his shoulder. Created around 1525 in Utrecht, Netherlands, this masterpiece is housed in the Museum of the Convent of St. Catherine.
The intricate details and craftsmanship of this piece showcase Douvermann's skill as a sculptor during the 16th century. The expressions on both figures' faces convey a sense of peace and serenity, capturing a moment of profound connection between saint and savior.
St. Christopher, known as the patron saint of travelers, is depicted with an antler growing from his head - a symbol often associated with him in Christian iconography. The Child Jesus sits comfortably on his shoulder, radiating innocence and divine grace.
This representation not only serves as a beautiful work of art but also carries deep religious significance for those who view it. It reminds us of the importance of faith and devotion in our daily lives, as well as the power of compassion and service to others.
Through Douvermann's skilled hands, this wood sculpture brings to life a timeless biblical scene that continues to inspire awe and reverence centuries later.
