AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A collection of three Italian porcelain owl sculptures, executed in the characteristic realistic style of fine biscuit porcelain. The figures excel in their dynamic expression, faithful anatomy and beautifully hand-painted details in matte earthy tones.
Two of the three pieces are designed by the Italian master artist Giuseppe Tagliariol (known as "Tay"), whose work is sought after by collectors for its liveliness. This concerns the barn owl on a tree trunk and the charming little owl perched on a stack of antique books. Both carry his embedded signature. The lot is complemented by a very large snowy owl from an Italian brokerage, which, due to its size and expressive gaze, immediately draws attention.
