Carved Carrara Marble Statue

The Center for Pastoral Leadership in Wickliffe, Ohio ordered a new St. Michael statue from Henninger's.  The statue was carved in Carrara, Italy out of white Carrara marble.  The following pictures show the different stages of the process from one solid block of marble to on-site installation.
