Animated Traditional Woman Pruning a Shrub - 30 cm

This animated 30 cm resin scene depicts a traditional woman carefully pruning a shrub with a pruning sickle. The model was created by local artist Michela Nibaldi exclusively for LCR Presepi by Messi Leandro, while the movement has been personally created by Messi Leandro. The coordinated animation brings the scene to life as the arm holding the sickle moves from side to side, realistically recreating the cutting motion, while her other hand gently supports the branches. Her focused expression reflects the care and precision of an experienced rural worker. She wears traditional clothing consisting of a long-sleeved olive-green tunic, a white ribbed shawl draped over her shoulders for warmth, and a long floral-patterned skirt that adds a touch of colour to the rustic setting. Her hair is neatly gathered into a bun, leaving her serene, mature features clearly visible. The detailed soil-effect base, enriched with small shrubs, enhances the realism of the composition, while a wooden chest filled with freshly pruned branches suggests the patience and dedication of her work. Perfect for Nativity displays, rural village scenes and agricultural settings, this handcrafted composition combines realistic movement with meticulous attention to detail, celebrating one of the timeless tasks of countryside life.
