Along the path that surrounds Lake Santa Caterina in Auronzo di Cadore, a wooden work captures the attention of passers-by: a sculpture that seems to emerge from the snowy landscape, masterfully carved by Riccardo Baldovin, a renowned wood artist. The figure, probably inspired by local tradition or the wild nature of the Dolomites, conveys a sense of peace and connection with the surrounding environment. The backdrop of the mountains and the water of the lake add further magic to the context, creating a perfect union between art and nature. This sculpture is not only a work of art, but a symbol of the ability to tell stories through the living material of wood. An ideal stop for those who appreciate handcrafted works and want to discover the talent of an artist who has been able to transform a log into emotion.

Lake Auronzo, or Lake Santa Caterina, is an artificial lake located in the municipality of Auronzo di Cadore, in the province of Belluno. Created in 1932 by the construction of a dam on the Ansiei River, it has a surface area of 0.49 km² and a maximum depth of 49.1 meters. The name "Santa Caterina" comes from the 16th century chapel located near the dam. Today it is a recreational site for activities such as rowing and canoeing-kayaking.
