Ceramic sculpture Leopardo delle nevi, made in Italy, signed, in excellent condition, 75 cm high, 32 cm wide, 32 cm deep, in the mid-20th century Italian artistic ceramics style.
Description from the seller
This is a splendid ceramic sculpture depicting a snow leopard (or a light-colored variant of a spotted leopard), crafted in a style that evokes the great tradition of Italian artistic ceramics from the mid-20th century.
A detailed description of the work:
Aesthetic Features
Subject and Pose: The animal is depicted in a regal and alert seated pose. The body is streamlined, with the tail gracefully wrapping around the base of the hind legs. The gaze is directed upward and slightly to the side, giving the statue a proud, almost human expression.
Coloration and Decoration: The coat features a glossy ivory-white background, speckled with circular black spots of varying sizes that mimic the natural pattern of the feline. Finer details can be seen on the muzzle and around the blue eyes, which add depth to the look.
Material and Finish: It is glazed ceramic fired at high temperature. The finish is extremely glossy, creating vivid light reflections on the animal’s muscular curves and emphasizing the dynamic realism despite the static pose.
We do not ship to Germany!!!!!
