The Female Moor's Head with Decoro Sicily is a prestigious piece of craftsmanship, made entirely by hand by the master ceramists of Ceramiche Sofia. This sculpture reinterprets the female figure of the baroque tradition in a contemporary key, distinguished by the absence of the classic crown, which lengthens the figure and draws the eye to the sumptuous drapery and the rich modelled appliqués. The work holds the excellence of Caltagirone manufacture, with a glossy crystalline finish that brings out the vividness of the pigments and makes every detail an exclusive work of art.
