The intricate Gothic and Renaissance influences are evident in every delicate carving. The image portrays a momentous wedding ceremony that holds deep religious significance. The Madonna stands gracefully beside her beloved Joseph while being blessed by God himself. This timeless artwork not only celebrates love but also serves as a testament to faith and devotion.
