20th Century Italian Ceramic Sculpture of Diana

Offered by: Jacqueline Adams Antiques

Description
This 20th-century Italian ceramic sculpture depicts Diana, the Roman goddess of the hunt, in an elegant and dynamic pose. Rendered in a glossy white glaze, the sculpture showcases Diana seated gracefully amidst two deer, symbolizing her association with wildlife and nature. The detailed drapery of her garment, the expressive poses of the animals, and the fluid composition highlight the artisanal skill involved in creating this piece. The work reflects a blend of Neoclassical Inspiration, evident in its mythological subject, and Art Deco Elegance, visible in its streamlined, stylized forms. The creamy ceramic glaze adds sophistication, making it a striking decorative object for classic or eclectic interiors. This sculpture beautifully embodies the timeless allure of classical mythology interpreted through 20th-century Italian artistry.
