AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This is a ceramic sculpture in a classical and naturalistic style, depicting a pair of zebras (a mother and her foal) at a moment of rest.
Here are the main details of the work:
Subject and Composition
Dynamics: The composition is pyramidal and harmonious. The largest zebra lies on the ground in a vigilant position, with one foreleg slightly raised, while the cub emerges over its shoulders, creating a sense of protection and depth.
Base: The animals rest on an irregular base that simulates grassy terrain, finished with shades of green and ochre.
Style and Materials
Material: It is glazed ceramic. The finish is extremely glossy, typical of decorative productions from the mid-20th century (vintage/retro style).
Pictorial Details: The black stripes are painted with precision on the white background, following the muscular anatomy of the animals to emphasize their volume. The eyes are defined with small touches of color that confer expressiveness to their faces.
Atmosphere
The statue has a vintage and exotic flavor, typical of decorative accessories that sought to bring a touch of wild nature (often associated with the 'Safari' or 'Hollywood Regency' style) into homes. It is a piece that combines the elegance of black and white with the softness of curved shapes.
