Symbols of a profound religiosity, these evocative memories, especially devoted to a holy figure, are tender manufactures, appealing to the inmost emotions of those who, patiently and lovingly, build these frames of glass, which serve as reliquary to the chosen sacred image. Surrounded and embellished by colorful garlands and flowers, the sacred figure is totally glorified and highlighted. The mage is unique, especially in what the decoration concerns, as if to each moment of creation corresponds a new artist's concern of better praising the devoted image - a double valorization of these beautiful works.
