EARLY 20th CENTURY SMALL BRONZE CHILD WITH CAP BY P. PIRAINO

About the Item

Elegant bronze bust, made using the lost wax technique and hand-chiseled. The sculpture is mounted on a parallelepiped base in yellow marble, which enhances its stability and support. The bronze represents the face of a smiling child, with a sweet grimace and a cap that gently protrudes from one side. It is a work of high sculptural quality, characterized by great realism, capable of enriching any environment with refinement. This bronze is attributed to the famous Sicilian bronze artist Pietro Piraino (1878-1950), whose signature is visible on the back. Piraino was active in Rome around the beginning of the 20th century.
