Leonardo Lucchi - Christ and the Samaritan Woman

The sculpture is inspired by the episode reported in the Gospel of John in which Jesus meets a Samaritan woman at Jacob's well.

As we can see in this work, Leonardo Lucchi began with a classical conception of sculpture, based on the representation of the human figure. Lucchi possesses remarkable sculptural technique, as can be seen in the way he delineates the group's volumes. While the figure of Christ stands static and imposing, emphasized by the vertical folds of his tunic, by contrast the Samaritan woman sits in a graceful pose and is characterized by vibrant drapery.

Leonardo Lucchi was born in Cesena in 1952. He trained at the Istituto d'Arte per la Ceramica in Faenza. He has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions and received important commissions. Examples include the Risen Christ and the Stations of the Cross for the Catholic Church of the Holy Trinity in Singapore, the coins minted by the Republic of San Marino for the bicentenary of the French Revolution, and, in Cesena, the important bronze groups preserved in the cathedral.
