Amphora vendor with crate 30 cm, nativity Tripi.
The vendor goes to the market with his goods hoping to find customers. Fatigue is felt: he stops and leans on his side to catch its breath. In that moment he realizes that a message is spreading among the crowd: the Savior is born.
All the nativity statues are handmade, in terracotta and cloth, with skill and care by the Sicilian artist Angela Tripi.
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).
In his works, the artist tells a story: each nativity figurine is depicted in a moment of life, allowing us to understand the existence of a before and after.
Characteristic details often emerge as tense muscles of a slave or the expression lines of an elderly person.
Angela Tripi succeeds in giving each shepherd an amazing realism, never seen before and unrepeatable rending her works unique. Adapted for a 30 cm nativity scene.
