Antique Russian Orthodox Wood Carving 3 Wise Men Nativity Statue Baby Jesus CribThis is a magnificent Russian Folk art carving of the Three Wise Men sculptures and hand carved (one block of wood?) baby Jesus crib carved full of Russian orthodoxy iconography and symbolic Holy images. The spectacular large carvings are painted in a style that is indicative of profuse, meticulous painting of Gustav Klimt, and is what adds to their attractiveness in addition to the incredibly detailed and stylized Gothic type carvings. The incredible iconographic crib has the top well of the crib with a definite image of a round head surrounded by halo and covered in outline of arms and body in an infinity, eternal image symbol, and the sides of the rocker arms of the crib have like a shawl covered Madonna Mary head/ bust figure surrounded by halo on each side.Each all hand carved wood Wise man is over 32 inches (81.3 cm) tall by about 7 inches (17.7 cm) wide, with a thickness of about 1 inch (2.54 cm).The antique, incredibly carved Nativity crib measures 17.5 inches (44.5 cm) long by 7.5 inches (19 cm) deep by 7.5 inches (19 cm) tall at the bottom well of the crib and not including the height of the end parts and peaks of the crib.The crib by itself weighs 3.7 pounds (1.676 Kg) by itself without any packing materials.Here's what I stated about this
