Padre Pio

The bust is cut at the chest, the brown habit falling in broad smooth masses with the hood thrown back and a white shirt buttoned at the throat beneath. The face carries the detail: deep creases at the eyes and brow, grey brows, a long beard worked in separate locks. The gaze is turned slightly aside and the lips are parted. An eight-sided cream socle lined in gold bears the name Padre Pio in blue script.
