About the Item

This 1950s Mid-Century Modern Italian ceramic plaque, framed in iron, is a vibrant and expressive example of the era's love for both abstraction and craftsmanship. The plaque features a hand-painted design depicting two stylized figures, a man and a woman, in a whimsical, abstract style typical of mid-century modern art. The figures are highly simplified, with elongated limbs and geometric forms. The woman, with red hair, is depicted in angular shapes with a pale, elongated face and a curvaceous body, while the man has a strong profile with exaggerated features, including a pointed yellow hat and a bold, dark outfit. They both hold what appears to be cups, suggesting a scene of intimate interaction, perhaps sharing a drink. The figures are rendered in muted yet earthy tones, such as mustard yellows, greens, and warm browns, set against a soft blue background that provides contrast and depth. The painting style is abstract and cubist-inspired, with flattened perspectives and bold outlines. The brushstrokes are expressive, and the use of bright yet muted colors is typical of Italian modernism during the mid-20th century. The plaque is set within an open, minimalist iron frame, consisting of crossed iron rods at the top and bottom that add an industrial touch to the piece. The iron frame complements the handcrafted, artistic quality of the ceramic, providing a sturdy yet simple structure that contrasts with the colorful and fluid design of the figures. This plaque exemplifies mid-century modern design with its playful, abstract representation of human figures, vibrant color palette, and the combination of natural materials like iron and ceramic. It serves as both a decorative artwork and a reflection of the era's artistic innovation.
