About the Item

Fabulous Italian sculpture from the first half of the 20th century. Half-bust painted terracotta depicting an old fisherman of excellent quality. Sculpture finished for the center that does not have stamps or signatures, yet to be attributed. Very pleasant and refined details of the fisherman, from the signs on the face marked by the sun to the details of the clothes. The colors of the artwork are still original, without signs of restoration and color recovery. In beautiful patina, object for antique dealers, interior designers and collectors. It has some small signs of time, without breaks or important missing parts, overall in good state of conservation.
