The compact, frontal posture with the hands brought together in front of the chest radiates calm, concentration and inner strength - exactly the qualities associated with this type of protective figure.<\/p>\n<p>The sculpture is roughly and expressively carved from one solid piece of wood. The square head with deep eyeholes, firm nose and subtly opened mouth give the sculpture a penetrating, almost timeless presence.
