About the Item
Rare terracotta sculpture attributed to the great designer Gio Ponti in the 1950s, fine Italian manufacture.
The sculpture is intended to be hung on the wall, as the back is flat.
The sculpture is modelled entirely in terracotta. It depicts a woman in profile, with her neck turned towards the viewer.
The woman has thick curly hair framing her face, with two roses modelled at both temples. Two soft ringlets descend on her neck. The woman's face is almost apathetic, she has no obvious expressions, as her face is relaxed and in its most relaxed state; her eyebrows are thin, gull-winged, higher than her eyes, which are well-hollowed almond-shaped. Finally, a small nose and a small but fairly fleshy mouth can be seen. Only one shoulder can be seen below, as the woman is in profile; on her chest instead of clothing we see many roses covering her nudity.
This statue is truly rare for boundless lovers of art.

Biagio Romeo Woman Sculpture, Signed 1996
By Romeo
Located in Milano, IT
Beautiful bronze and wood sculpture designed in 1996, fine Italian manufacture. SIGNED.
The base is made of lacquered black wood. This form serves as a pedestal for the actual sculpture.
The main body is represented by an entirely nude bronze woman, kneeling.
The woman is seated on a rock, on which the artist's signature is carved.
The woman is represented in a contorted position: in fact, she is seated with one knee on the ground, while her entire weight pivots on the other. With one arm she touches the ground to keep her balance while with the other she touches her head, as if she wanted to be photographed. The woman is completely naked and we can see this from her obvious breasts, but her bottom is also visible.
The woman seems to represent a person who wants to be looked at, proudly showing herself in her nudity. A hymn to female nudity and to the beauty and harmony of the body.
The sculpture is very beautiful and suitable for decorating classy areas.
