Description from the seller
This is a ceramic sculpture in a classical and naturalistic style, depicting a pair of zebras (a mother with her foal) at rest.
Here are the main details of the work:
Subject and Composition
Dynamics: The composition is pyramidal and harmonious. The larger zebra lies on the ground in a vigilant position, with one front leg slightly raised, while the foal emerges behind it, 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 over the white background, following the animals' muscular anatomy to emphasize volume. The eyes are defined with small touches of color giving expressiveness to the faces.
Atmosphere
The sculpture has a vintage and exotic flavor, typical of home décor accessories that sought to bring a touch of wild nature (often associated with the 'Safari' or 'Hollywood Regency' style) inside homes. It is a piece that combines the elegance of black and white with the softness of curved forms.
