Man and plow with ox, 30 cm Angela Tripi.
The elderly farmer has a tired face and a half-open mouth, sighs of tiredness and anxiety works with a plow pulled by an ox with eyes almost closed as a sign of fatigue.
All the statues are handmade, in terracotta and cloth, then meticulously painted by hand. It is a true work of art made with skill and attention at Angela Tripi's artistic atelier. Normally, the statues of the traditional nativity scene, for example the Neapolitan one, are made with a skeleton made with fabrics and with the ends in terracotta (the head, hands and feet).
The nativity statues of the artist Angela Tripi instead have completely formed bodies: they are modeled naked and subsequently dressed with fabrics and small jewels. In her works, the artist tells a story: each statue is depicted in a moment of their life, thus allowing us to understand the existence of a before and after. Angela Tripi succeeds in giving each shepherd an amazing realism, never seen before and unrepeatable: her works will never be the same, making them unique.
CHARACTERS MAY DIFFER FROM THE PHOTO AS EVERY SCULPTURE IS A UNIQUE PIECE, BY CHOICE FROM THE ARTIST.
