Statue, Maternité - 20 cm - Ceramic

Boeotian (Archaic Greece) terracotta statuette Beautiful ancient replica, 20 cm Superb hand-sculpted anthropomorphic terracotta figurine, faithfully reproducing the style of the famous “Pappades” of Boeotia (Greece, 6th century BC). • Material: Terracotta, hollow interior structure shaped by hand (in keeping with ancient techniques). • Decoration: Geometric painting in brown and red pigments (chevron motifs, drapery lines and facial features). • Condition: Evidence of an ancient restoration (visible at the junction of the head and shoulder), which testifies to the age of this copy and gives it a fine cabinet-of-curiosities patina. Some normal signs of wear under the base. A very beautiful display piece, ideal for archaeology enthusiasts, the Grand Tour, or classical décor.

Estimate:£0.83
