Terracotta Statue on Plinth of Girl Protecting Puppy after Odoardo Fantacchiotti
About the Item
20th century limed terracotta statue "Ragazza che protegge il suo cucciolo dal serpente" Girl Protecting Her Puppy From a Snake after Odoardo Fantacchiotti (1809-1877), supported by a square-form limed terracotta pedestal.
This work evokes a great deal of tenderness from the viewer. The girl, dressed in drapery that seems to want to slip off her body at any moment, holds in her arms a frightened puppy seeking protection.
The young girl's melancholy gaze and the little dog's frightened gaze are turned towards the snake which, at the height of her feet, raises its threatening head.
Pedestal 30 x 14 x 14 inches
Figure 38 inches tall.
