Moor man with amphora for 30 cm Nativity Scene by Angela Tripi.
This 30 cm statue portrays a seller of amphorae and utensils and is entirely hand-modelled and hand-painted in terracotta. The figurine is then dressed with starched fabrics, expertly worked to create natural folds and a high degree of realism.
The Moor seller shows a calm, peaceful face, as if preparing serenely for a day at the market. With his right hand he supports a terracotta amphora secured by a leather shoulder strap, while a tied plate hangs from his belt to carry part of his wares.
The realistic effect of the statue is striking: the musculature, the individually modelled fingers and the posture reveal a complex and meticulous workmanship, the result of the skilled artisans in Angela Tripi’s workshop.
Accessories such as bracelets, the necklace and the rope binding his hair are finished with great precision, underscoring the exceptional artistic level of this creation.
A quality figure that enriches any Nativity with authenticity and artistic value.
