Bonobo Monkey Head Sculpture in Terracotta Signed and Dated - Italy 2019

About the Item

This realistic work, made of terracotta, comes from the hands of artist Angelo Zanella, a contemporary artist dedicated to sculpture and painting. Able to make paintings of any size, one day, almost for fun, finding himself a block of clay in the Studio, he tried his hand at modeling this material, specifically to create a monkey head that could be usable either by leaning it against or hanging it on a wall. He realized that his skill went far beyond the paintbrush and made a series of Bonobo "portraits," each with different details and expression. This signed specimen, is dated 2019.
