About the Item

Mid 20th C. Italian, a large charger made of glazed ceramic signed "Nino Parrucca" at lower right. Numbered #155 and marked Made in Italy to underside. The plate features a lively scene of grape harvesting, a common theme in Mediterranean art that celebrates the region's rich agricultural traditions. The scene depicts several figures engaged in the process of collecting and pressing grapes, with a focus on community and celebration. The figures are stylized, with bold outlines and simple, almost cartoon-like facial features, giving the scene a playful and folk-art quality. The colors are bright and cheerful, dominated by greens, blues, reds, and yellows. The background includes elements of the landscape, such as green rolling hills and a few trees, with a village or farmstead depicted in the background. Information About Nino Parrucca: Nino Parrucca was an Italian ceramic artist, known for his work in the mid to late 20th century. He was particularly famous for his brightly colored and often whimsical depictions of Sicilian life and culture. Parrucca’s work is appreciated for its bold use of color, playful style, and celebration of traditional Italian themes. His style is influenced by the rich cultural heritage of Sicily, with frequent themes related to agriculture, folklore, and everyday life. The use of stylized figures and bold outlines is characteristic of his work. Dimensions: 22" dia Condition: Good, original glaze imperfections, no visible chips, cracks, or repairs
