Good Friday – Commemoration of the suffering and death of Jesus

Good Friday is one of the most moving and contemplative days of Holy Week. On this day, Christians worldwide commemorate the Passion, Crucifixion, and Agony of Jesus on the Cross. This time of intense mourning and silent devotion is often accompanied by processions and Stations of the Cross that visualize Jesus' painful Passion.

The depiction of the crucifixion is a central motif in Christian art. Hand-carved crucifixes , crafted with great care in traditional workshops, lend this day a tangible dimension. Each individual figure carries the emotional impact of that hour and serves as a silent reminder of the Savior's sacrifice and suffering.

The symbolic power of the cross lies in its profound significance as a sign of redemption and hope, even in life's darkest moments. In the arts and crafts of Val Gardena, this symbolism is translated into intricate details that reflect both pain and spiritual redemption. Numerous artistic depictions combine the classical depiction of suffering with modern craftsmanship, thus blending harmoniously into the tradition of faith.
