Angela Tripi - Sculpture, L' Architetto - 30 cm - Earthenware - 1997

A rare terracotta sculpture (height 30 cm) entirely hand-modeled nude and hand-painted by the celebrated Palermo artist Angela Tripi, dating from the late 1990s. The work depicts an 'Architect' or master builder, an unusual profane subject highly sought after by collectors. The attention to detail is extraordinary: in the left hand he grips a book bearing the inscription "ARCHITETTURA", while in the right he supports the rolled dossiers of a construction project with the words "PROG. N° 4". The piece features the valuable autograph incised on the base "A. Tripi" and is complete with its original period tag bearing the historic handwritten sale price of 165,000 Lire. In excellent preservation, no chips or restorations.
