I have started this page on my Great or is it Great, Great Uncle Fra. Claudio Granzotto. I was fortunate enough to go to his beatification (One step before canonization (Sainthood)) in the Vatican City. I also had an audience with the Pope. But of the little I know of him, he was a great sculptor and I have seen a number of his works, whilst in Italy. Below is some stuff that I found on the net and I am sure my Uncle will make sure I don't miss out on anything

Blessed Claudio Granzotto, born near Venice in 1900, served three years in the Italian Army. He had artistic talents that led him to the Academy of Fine Arts, from which he received a diploma in 1929. In 1933 he became a Franciscan brother and was very kind to the poor. He died on the feast of the Assumption in 1947 from a brain tumor. He was beatified in 1994

Claude Granzotto [Claudio] [baptised Riccardo (Richard)] (Italian, peasant, honoured sculptor, Franciscan friar, died [brain tumor] eight days before his 47th birthday in 1947 [beatified 1994]) [commemorated by some on September 2]

Asmodeus in Italy

Italy also has a number of Asmodeus figures. The most remarkable is located in the church of St Lucie de Piave (Treviso). Made out of Carrara marble, the devil is supporting the holy water conch. The conch itself has a bronze statue of the Virgin Mary. Of all his family members, this one comes closest to Saunière’s depiction; Saunière’s stoup has a series of 4 angels on top.
The sculpture was ordered by father Morando and was created in 1927, the work of the Franciscan monk Claudio Granzotto (Riccardo, his marital status, before entering the priesthood). As such, this Asmodeus postdates Saunière’s.
The right knee touches the ground, the left arm is aimed towards the face, seemingly trying to reduce the load of the conch. The wings of the devil are folded up on the back, the points of the wings stabilizing the stoup. The tormented face does not have horns, but does have pointed ears.
Around his waist, our demon has a belt, made out of a snake’s skin, unrolled, its head resting on the right thigh of the devil. Again, the fingers and toes are pointed. On the base, there is an inscription that prevents the demon from being crushed by the Virgin.
The remarkable aspect is that the author of this remarkable work died in Padua, on August 15, 1947, as the Virgin had announced to him in a dream. He was beautified by Pope John Paul II on November 20, 1994, his body resting in Chiampo, before the replica of the Cave of Lourdes that was built there in honour of the Virgin Mary.

This stoup is in a church in Veneto which is dedicated to Ste Lucie. There are a lot of Templar Knights places in this area.

This sculpture was made by Fra Granzotto in 1927. He was a franciscan monk who was to be beatified.

The following sentence can be read on the pedestal: Ipsa conteret caput tuum => she who outshines you.

There is a statue of Virgin Mary in the stoup.
