THE WOODEN STATUE - A SUCCESS STORY
-:-
An account of a visit to San Salvatore in Lauro
-:-
The picture below was taken at 5pm, (about 15 June 2002), in the Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome.
We were keen to find out more about this wooden sculpture and in particular its current whereabouts.
We appealed for help and have finally been successful. Our contributor, who made the initial enquiry, continued his search and has come up with the following information and pictures.

"What great luck. I gave a copy of my original photograph to my Italian  language teacher, a few months ago. I expected to hear no more. But it was sent on to a sister who lives in Rome. The priest in charge at the Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore, where I took the original picture, could not remember it, but an elderly lady who runs the repository there did. The sculpture is in San Salvatore in Lauro church in Rome. The two pictures (nos 2 and 3), and the church brochure was received yesterday. I've looked at the Church website itself, but there is no clue that it is there, so I don't know its name or the name of the artist. I assume it has been there since 2002. Perhaps you might have a look. I will go to see it myself, maybe later on this year.
Please feel free to add this information to your website page.
Best regards,"
