Saint Charbel Statue in Colored Marble Powder. 20 cm

Iconography and Devotion to Saint Charbel Makhlouf

Saint Charbel Makhlouf, the hermit saint of the Maronite Order, is one of the Catholic Church’s most beloved and invoked spiritual figures because of his extraordinary life of silence and penance, as well as the numerous miracles attributed to him. This Saint Charbel statue delicately captures the essence of his contemplative spirituality. His face, framed by his characteristic thick white beard, with his eyes humbly lowered, conveys a profound sense of inner peace and complete surrender to the divine will.

The figure wears the typical black monastic habit with a hood, finely sculpted in its folds. He holds an open sacred book in his hands, symbolizing his constant meditation on the Scriptures and the liturgy that marked his long years spent in the hermitage of Annaya. His right hand is raised in a calm gesture of blessing, a visual reminder of his continual intercession for the protection of the faithful and the healing of the sick.
