Lamb - Standing (Nativity Piece) - HUM 2230/P HSC 69139093

The Nativity Scene - a Christian Christmas symbol.

A Symbol of Innocence for the Sacred Manger. The Lamb Standing (HUM 2230/P) is a poignant addition to the M.I. Hummel Nativity collection. While the Gospel of Matthew focuses on the Magi, modern tradition holds the stable animals as vital witnesses who warmed the newborn Child with their breath and presence. This innocent lamb carries even deeper meaning, alluding to the "Lamb of God"—a title bestowed by John the Baptist that resonates throughout the Christmas story.

Designed to fit perfectly into the ensemble of the biblical narrative, this standing lamb adds a sense of life and gentle energy to your creche. Hand-painted in Rödental, Germany, the figurine features a soft, textured wool finish and the soulful, expressive eyes characteristic of authentic M.I. Hummel artistry. It is a subtle but powerful reminder of the peace and purity at the heart of the first Christmas.

A Nativity scene truly comes to life when the Holy Family is surrounded by the humble creatures of the field. Complete your flock and stable ensemble with these companion pieces:

• Lamb Lying (HUM 2230/O) – The resting counterpart to the standing lamb, perfect for a natural grouping.
