Figures of the Crèche in Canada

Back

Mary of the Advent

Bourgault sculpted a pregnant Virgin whose natural and realistic appearance is a homage to motherhood. Far from being shocking, Marie de l’Avent (Mary of the Advent) invites reverence and touches the heart. This extremely original sculptural work adds a new dimension to the crèche of Saint Jean Port Joli which sees itself as "a creation in movement, a re-created Birth".
