Saint Barbara, the savior from sudden death,
storms at sea and fire, the patroness of artisans,
the intercessor of travelers is an example of true
faith for all Christians. She, a revered righteous
person and a woman of fervent prayer, invisibly
leads with her hand, helping to get closer to life in
holiness and love for God.
Made of precious metals and exquisitely inlaid with sparkling stones, the
sculpture is an example of a skilful combination of artistic imagination and
excellent work of goldsmiths and silversmiths. The brilliance of the ultra-
transparent purity of precious diamonds, like the immaculate sanctity of
the virgin, the radiance of precious citrine, like the sun in a bronze sunset,
which she admired from the tower. The engraving done in silver with
special attention and the beautifully processed jasper in the base are all
the result of the painstaking work of jewelry artisans, as if Barbara helped
them personally.
