I have a huge collection af religious items .It started when I inherited some pieces when my Great Grandma Daisy passed on.The statues(especially the old ones)contain such beauty ,underestimated works of art,yet because of the religious content many people dimiss them.My husband got this one for me at an auction,it had no hands at the time.(I’m a restorer specialising in early 20th century plasters).

Religion is a system of social coherence based on a common group of beliefs or attitudes concerning an object, person, unseen being, or system of thought considered to be supernatural, sacred, divine or highest truth, and the moral codes, practices, values, institutions, traditions, and rituals associated with such belief or system of thought.Christianity, Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism are the largest world religions today followed by Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism. The third-largest “group” of approximately 1 billion people adhere to irreligious approaches which include Humanism, Atheism, Rationalism, and Agnosticism.Hell is a place or a state of pain and suffering. According to many religions, the afterlife affords evildoers to suffer eternally.Hell is often populated by demons who torment the damned. The fallen angel Lucifer in Christian cultures, otherwise known as Satan, is portrayed in popular culture as the ruler of Hell.Hell as the final resting place for the Devil and the fallen angels (demons), prepared as their punishment by God.

Saint Lawrence (c. 225 – 258) (Latin: Laurentius – “laurelled”) was one of the seven deacons of ancient Rome who were martyred under the persecution of Roman Emperor Valerian in the year 258. / According to lore, among the treasure of the Roman church entrusted to Lawrence for safe-keeping was the Holy Chalice, the cup from which Jesus and the Apostles drank at the Last Supper. / According to Christian mythology, the Holy Grail is a relic that was sent by St. Lawrence to his parents in Spain. He entrusted this sacred chalice to a friend whom he knew would travel back to Spain, his home country. While the Holy Chalice’s exact journey through the centuries is disputed, it is generally accepted by Catholics that the Chalice was sent by his family to a monastery for preservation and veneration. Historical records indicate that this chalice has been venerated and preserved by a number of monks and monasteries through the ages. Today the Holy Grail is venerated in a special chapel in the Catholic Cathedral of Valencia, Spain, in the region of St. Lawrence’s birth and early life.
