Andrea oliva - Bow window,autunno

A sculpture created by a contemporary artist using multiple materials: black marble, wrought iron, and wood. The marble has been carved and polished, while the wood has been worked by hand and with flame to achieve an antique look, subsequently treated with neutral wax. The inserts are in wrought iron. The idea was to recreate a surreal setting, like a bow window, in which a cat stands in the moonlight. It will be carefully packed and shipped by courier.
