Info and features

Moor woman with child, Angela Tripi's Nativity Scene, 30 cm characters. Terracotta figurine of a moor woaman going back home with her child after a long day of work, suitable for Nativity Scene with standing characters of 30 cm average height.This Nativity scene figurine is made by the Italian artist Angela Tripi. Each character is completely hand-made, different and therefore unique and their features are extraordinarily detailed, charismatics and expressive. Angela's statues have a full body structure: each character is created naked and then dressed with fabric clothes (unlike other statuettes where only hands, feet and head are sculpted). You will be able to notice details like the tense muscles, tendons and expression wrinkles. While looking at these small pieces of art, you will realise you are looking at the history of a man or woman, "captured" in a particular moment of their life.
