Description from the seller
Rare Porcelain Sculpture from the Era – Lady of the 18th Century (31 cm) – Italy, 1930s/1940s (Style / Northern Italian School - Fabris / Lenci)
Description of the Lot
Refined and large antique sculpture in precious hand-painted porcelain, depicting an elegant 18th-century-dress lady with tricorne hat and a skirt with wide pleats in olive green and yellow tones.
The work stands out for its remarkable molded form, the delicacy in facial details, and the quality of the glossy glaze, clearly recalling the neorococo figurative language and Deco Art typical of the great Northern Italian porcelain artistic school of the early 20th century (inspired by the repertoire of masters such as Luigi Fabris and the Veneto-Piedmont manufacturing traditions of the era).
