Farmer with stick and sack, 13 cm Angela Tripi

Farmer with stick and sack 13 cm Angela Tripi. This nativity scene figurine, created by the Sicilian artist Angela Tripi. It is a masterpiece statue depicting everyday life. The farmer, sculpted in terracotta, carries the day's harvest under his arm, dressed in typical clothes suitable for both classic and Arab settings. The facial details, clothing, and footwear are carefully crafted to convey feelings of hard work and sacrifice. Each of Tripi's figurines is hand-modeled starting from a nude figure, then dressed in clothes that hug the sculpted body, imparting a surprising realism to the work. This production process significantly differs from that of other statues, which are built on a skeleton to which limbs and the head are added. Purchasing this figurine will not only enrich your nativity scene but also make each scene or part of it unique in its own right, thanks to the uniqueness of each piece created by Angela Tripi. Each piece is a sculpted tale, a fragment of history carrying deeply human emotions and narratives. Actual dimensions: 15x5.5 cm. Made in Italy.
