It's possible this person lived in Italy. No statue names, but this
person seems to have specialized in the Madonna and Child.

Here are two possibilities: 

Jorge Bianchi, an Argentinian sculptor, although most of his work
shown online seems to be secular. http://www.jorge.bianchi.net.ar/

Tito Bianchi, about whom there is little information, but who seems to
have owned a factory which produced religious and classical statues in
the twenties and thirties (and perhaps earlier) in Cecina, Italy
(western coast, south of Livorno). From the translations of the site
it's difficult to determine if the factory exists today.

http://www.isac-statue.it/ita_chi_siamo.htm (Bianchi translates
literally to White men here)

Hope this is of some small assistance.
